Veggie Plants Waikanae and Otaki Markets This WeekendLast chance for summer/autumn crops

Val from Otaki District

Last chance for summer/autumn crops:
Red, yellow and purple Capsicum
Cucumbers, several different varieties (the ones we planted this week have doubled in size already - they are loving these conditions)
Spring onions
Zucchini and Kumi Kumi
Special on our remaining Kumara: $2.00 each or 8 for $10. Happy to provide growing tips if you haven't tried these before.
And think PESTO: We have green Genoese Basil, plus Purple Ruffles, Thai Queen and Aristotle (Greek basil). Basil is a great companion plant for tomatoes, as are our Marigolds for keeping the bugs away.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
