Rosa Stewart, from Stokes Valley, is the proud mum of Tazzy.

"Yesterday I was doing my usual stalking of the backyard birds with my camera behind my washing line as they were flying in for their daily feed of the seed that I had just thrown on the lawn and wondered why they just suddenly all flew off in all directions! What had scared them off was the sight of this magnificent but rotound feline lurking quite near by.

She is very much a Jeckyll and Hyde character, very friendly when she is tucked up with me at night and just loves having her belly rubbed. But outside she runs away when approached and totally disappears when friends or family drop in for a coffee!"

I have had many cafe exhibitions but now I'm wanting a permanent space to hang my work and rotate it as it sells. I'm thinking outside the box and wonder if there are retailers who would love to have beautiful paintings enhancing their environment....possibly an antiques shop, a high end fashion store, a collectibles store, a library or another space that I haven't thought of....I believe that I'm a golden opportunity regarding my ability to produce high quality paintings...but I need an outlet.....if you have a store and/or would like to talk to me about your idea please respond below. Please see my attached images, I'm a saleable artist. Thank-you, Niki. www.nikiphillipsart.co.nz...

The SAC committee is pleased to invite you to an evening where we will show a DVD of NZ Fibre Art.
The DVD was directed by Peter Coates, a well known artist and film producer/director who, throughout his long career, has had a huge role in promoting and celebrating art and craft of all varieties both in NZ and overseas. Peter was our guest speaker back in April, and donated the DVD to the Club.

We were sad to have had to postpone our Annual Exhibition and Sale of work, scheduled for the end of October, because of Covid restrictions. This was special as it would have been our 50th exhibition. We plan to hold it next year Covid permitting!

We are pleased to invite you to come and view this DVD….. Seatoun Village Hall, Wednesday 20th October, 7.30pm.
Please log in with your Covid Ap, or record your presence in the log provided, wear your mask, and seating will be spaced.

Our homes can be our greatest investment and protecting our homes against climate change has become more important than ever.

Our changing climate poses risks to our natural and built environments. Swiss Re in a global analysis of insurance risk said to “expect climate risks to raise global property premiums by 33-41% between 2020 and 2040”. The potential increase was deemed a direct consequence of our changing climate.

Our Climate Insights property report provides easily understood information on change to risks for your current or a future property. The report includes robust and actionable information for residential property owners, tenants and investors to enhance their property’s climate resilience.

Hi Neigbours,

I have decided to run the Auckland Marathon on my birthday next year. While I enjoy running, I have decided that this time I am also running for a good cause by helping to raise money for the Mental Health Foundation.



While I know that it's been tough for a lot of people this year, the foundation does excellent work and really does need our help. If you could take a moment and donate the cost of a cup of coffee, I would really appreciate it.



Thanks, Heaps
