Yates

We’re looking for young gardeners (aged 5-15 years) who love getting into the garden, whether it’s growing fruit and veggies or flowers for the butterflies and bees. A Yates Budding Young Gardener may have been gardening for a few years and know how to sow seeds, rustle up a few radishes and turn lemons into lemonade. Or even just starting out!

Yates Budding Young Gardener will become a Yates brand ambassador for one year AND win an amazing family trip for four, to the Gold Coast, Australia.

The five day trip will include flights, accommodation, a rental car and tickets to the Queensland Gardening Expo (if travelling in July) and a three day pass to Gold Coast theme parks - Warner Bros. Movie World, Sea World and Wet ‘n’ Wild.

The competition is open to all keen gardeners aged 5-15 years. Entries close 17th September - so enter your Budding Young Gardener now!

Same Again Dan

Michael from Trentham

Who else besides me has gotten annoyed well before now with TVOne weather presenter, Daniel Corbett constant use of the term: SAME THING AGAIN.

Dan uses this term at least two-three times on any evening he is doing the weather presentation. A year ago and it wasn't in his vocabulary.

Ok, NZ is not a huge country and therefore the weather region by region, city by city can be pretty similar. But to use the same terminology when there is either no need to or many alternatives, rankles me anyway.

His weather colleagues have never used this Corbett habitual three worded expression.

Another thing Dan does with so much more repetitiveness of late is the frimmp, woosh, voomb sounds of noise he makes to describe rain, wind, impending climatic conditions or whatever.

Come on Dan. You weren't doing or saying these things in the UK.
