Hi Neighbours, not long now until Blenheim gets its very own Kmart. I can only imagine what the queues will be like on the first day. But what do you think of their opening hours, 8am to midnight? Feel free to comment too, but include NFP if you don't want it used in print.
Beautiful photos taken by David James Photography during a trip to Meretoto / Ship Cove.
The photos have a common theme - hands on the past.
The future of course - is in all our hands.
One of our aims is to create awareness about the Marlborough Sounds environment and support projects to protect and enhance native plants, animals and marine life.
This fundraising event on Saturday is well worth your support.

For one night only, the co-lab behind the popular Manaaki preserves and condiments, bring you a night rich in culture and tradition while also paying homage to contemporary Māori cuisine.
Inspired by the Aunties of old – the “Queens of Manaakitanga” – who always had the pataka stocked, Hākari will take guests on a cultural and culinary journey, with each course telling its own unique – and local – story.
Live music and cultural performances will set the scene for a stunning night.
For hundreds of years hākari – or feasts – have played a key role in Māori culture as a demonstration of hospitality.
Don’t miss this rare chance to experience refined but generous Māori kai in a marae environment.
Tickets are $150 and include canapes, a 3 course dinner and welcome drink, plus an evening jam-packed full of cultural entertainment. A cash bar will be available.

This is required to keep footpaths safe and accessible for everyone, be it the postie, someone with a guide dog or a push chair.
If you rent the property, check with the property manager or owner on who is responsible.
Footpath and overhanging vegetation inspections take place in April and May, so your early attention may save you being issued a reminder notice.
Thanks for looking after our footpath users and keeping Marlborough safe, tidy and accessible.
