45 before 45 - ideas please!
I had a birthday this week, and being the mad planner that I am, I'm creating a list of things to do before my next birthday - which will be my 45th.
So, I'm after ideas for things to put on my list of 45 things to achieve by the time I'm 45.
A couple of qualifiers: I'm not into adrenaline, so no jumping out of planes or off bridges. And they need to be things that I can do, and things that any normal person with normal resources would be able to achieve - no flying rockets into outer space or anything.
So far I've got:
1. Play a round of golf
2. Compete in a sport
3. Smash NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month)
4. Read 'The Bone People' (again)
I'll be setting up a blog and tracking progress online and in print, so come at me with your best ideas - even something that you set out to accomplish and achieved and gave you a real sense of achievement. Would love to hear your stories as well!

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Apple tree
Mature tree. Blush Babe from Waimea nursery is a dwarf variety. A new plant is $70. I'd like $50 for this tree that is about 7 years old.
