You may have seen the post doing the rounds on social media at the moment asking whether English is spoken here and suggesting NZ is a state of Australia (see below). Have you ever been asked anything surprising about NZ? Feel free to message me or comment below. Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in the article. Thanks very much for your help and happy travels.

We are planning new plantings over several hectares extending our precious forest. Those wool insulations will provide perfect protection for our new plants keeping them moist and stopping them getting swamped by weeds and grass. Bundles of them can be left on the verandah of our Forest Manager at 15 Pitt St, Whanganui or if this is not convenient, phone 027 265 0082 and we will see what we can arrange for pickup.

Something special this Sunday 27th March 7pm, 256 Wicksteed Street.
PSYCHOMETRY with three of our locals.
HOW DOES THIS WORK?
Bring along a small personal object (a crystal, piece of jewellery etc).
Place your item on a tray as you enter.
Our mediums will select an item and by tuning into its vibration, bring forward a message to the owner without knowing who that is.
Sounds like fun and you WILL get your items back 😉
Come along on Sunday and enjoy the friendly vibe of our Centre.
There will be a $1 raffle, healing time and a cuppa. Koha appreciated.
