Children’s Christmas Party
Children’s Christmas Party
A sea of expectant faces as the children await that most vital thing: their gift from Father Christmas. A big vote of thanks to Allan and Barbara Nichols for arranging yet another wonderful evening for our children and grandchildren. The attendance gets bigger every year.
Harold visited and Nigel the magician kept the children spellbound. Santa and helper were as generous as always. Thanks!
First though, everyone had to show their Vaccine Passes and check in with our Door Monitors, Bryan and Dexter. That all went without a hitch and then things got serious. Children received a balloon and other goodies while most adults seemed to head for the Bar.
Santa and his trusty fairy were popular with the children and so was the magician, Nigel’s, white rabbit who was stroked by a long queue of kids at the end of the show. Just how is he trained to sit so placidly for the whole time?
The caterer provided an excellent meal of glazed ham and vegetables, followed by individual Pavlovas with fruit, cream and ice creams for the adults. The children seemed more than happy with their boxes of chicken nuggets and chips plus the ubiquitous party ice creams.
Notices were few and far between, especially after Organiser Extraordinaire, Allan, gave every child one of those pesky roll-out squeakers. A cacophony of shrieks and shrill noises erupted as 40- odd children blew to their hearts’ content. The party, unsurprisingly, wound up soon afterwards.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
