Free Figs, Medieval Fighting, and Tournament Fundrasing

No charge because you do all the work of harvesting. Think of all that yummy jam and chutney you could make! We have very technology advanced tools to help you - an unbent coat hanger for reaching, a tyre in the tree as a platform, and egg cartons to transport your fig rewards back to your house.

I am representing New Zealand at international medieval fighting tournaments in Italy and Scotland this year in May. For a look at my fighting and travel itinerary, you can see it on my fundraising video.

I have set myself the target of raising $5k (NZ) and I would greatly appreciate it if you share my video with others, encourage donations to my fighting funds, and wish me luck.

Morning Team,

Have been having a discussion with some on the council who have tried suggesting the above but have had the idea rejected as too hard, I think the saving in costs alone, mailing costs, paper etc would justify the move and be a good move for the environment.

This is the of use of email to advise residents when rates are due and reminder emails when the payment is near due date. Also a council run website where residents can log on and check the value of their property and where they are with rate payments.

What do you think.
