Wellington City Council
My thoughts - the council blames the previous councils for the state of our infrastructure but our present council are not doing even 50% of the job either. They seem to focus predominantly on cycle-lanes, speed bumps, raised pedestrian crossings instead of focusing on the water leaks and other water related issues. They claim they are going to put up our rates between 12-15% and then on top of that give us water meters for their incompetence of running the council. I see we will be getting a new charge on our rates invoice for Moa Point. Why should we pay this as they are wasting money on secret deals that we can only imagine how many more they have made that haven't been leaked. The council have become a dictatorship as they put out surveys for community feedback and then toss it in the bin if it doesn't align with their ideology. They've have already made up their minds and are going through the motions. How can we have a mayor that does not engage, takes no responsibility but has time to mention full steam ahead on cycleways. This needs a reset. We need a mayor like Wayne Brown for Wellington. Frank

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael

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!
