Mystery Noise Solved.
To all those who replied to my original post or are interested, I am very pleased to say the mystery has been solved. Yesterday I went to the local police station and spoke to two helpful ladies. The noise has been identified and verified as coming from the gravel crushers at Renwick. One of the ladies lives at Renwick and she said that the description of the noise and the times it was heard was a perfect match to what she hears. What I find hard to understand is that out of the many, many people I spoke to only two ladies said they had heard a noise and yet I have heard it regularly and loudly every evening for months but no one else could hear it. I was given hearing aids 2 years ago because" my hearing was not good" but stopped using them last year as every thing was too loud and yet I could hear this noise so clearly. Nothing wrong with my hearing!

Snip n Chip
Do your pet a favour and help them live longer by getting them desexed. If you can't afford it, please click desexing.spca.nz......
As they will help you.
Or your local rescue organisation.
As cats can revert to being feral away from people and cause more unwanted litters. Make sure you also have a decent job and be able to feed and nurse the cat post-surgery.
There's also pet insurance companies around which you can claim back a percentage of what you pay, if you have a policy. If you really love your pets, you can help them out financially.
Some feral cats can learn to trust humans again given time and patience with a quiet room. They will wind up showing more love than domestic cats. But the main thing is Snip for ferals also.
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
