BARKET EMERGES AT BREWTOWN
A market designed to include everything dog related is coming to Upper Hutt's Brewtown on Sunday May 28, 9am to 2pm.
So there will be stalls, toys, treats, chews, training aids, apparel, info on doggy day care centres and boarding facilities.
Well behaved dogs can come along too.
Brewtown has always been open to dogs accompanying their handlers in a lot of the facilities at Brewtown.
This could become the second annual "expo" involving dogs in the Wellington region. The other is the Wellington Pet Expo staged in Porirua.
The Pet Expo costs up to $10 per person entry fee. The Barket costs a gold coin donation.
Advice please, declined house insurance cover
Looking for advice please. Has anyone had any issues reinsuring their homes. Our current house insurance went up by 11.5%, so I decided to get another quote. At the end of a very long phone with Tower, they declined to insurance us, saying our property is a landslide risk. I'm on Wyndham Road in Pinehaven. While the house is up off the street, the house itself and backyard are on the flat part of our section. Now - in the interest of full disclosure - I'm going to have to tell our current insurer too. I've rung the Council to see if they've updated their hazards mapping - and they said the only update has been to the Pinehaven Overflow. Have lived in this house since 2003, and insurance has never been an issue till now. TIA
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
