It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!

Please be careful when driving as there have been reports of black ice and slips which have caused hazardous conditions.
- Snowfalls had closed the Lewis Pass (SH7), Crown Range road and the Milford Road (SH94) from Hollyford Rd junction to Milford. The alternative route to the Crown Range via Kawarau Gorge was open but there could be black ice.
- Snow was also falling in Arthur's Pass (SH73). Falls were also expected around the summits for Haast Pass (SH6), Lindis Pass (SH8).
- The Queenstown Lakes District Council says there is black ice "across the network", especially Malagans Road, Glenorchy Road, Fernhill Road, around Arthur's Point and Kelvin Heights.
Remember to:
- Keep an eye out for your neighbours, especially the elderly, to ensure everyone is warm and looked after. Post to your Neighbourly community if you can lend a hand.
- If you notice any slips or hazards that you need to warn the community about - then don't hesitate to post an Urgent Alert. Your post will be sent out as either a text or email to others living around you.

Does it make sense to buy teenagers bigger beds so they have more room to grow? Or, like writer and mum Jayne D'Arcy, do you think a double could equal trouble later on?

He says people should be able to make their own holiday arrangements, rather than the Government telling us when to take the day off.
We want to know your thoughts. Should people be able to make their own holiday arrangements? Or should we leave our holidays as is?
