Christmas decorations available for a koha
Dear neighbours, we have some Christmas decorations available to a good home, and they include: big and small red ribbons with wire to attach; reindeer and a sled; one wreath and lots of pieces of artificial tree; pinecones with wire to attach; and crystal garlands. They are only available as one lot and must be collected - please bring some large boxes to take them away in. A koha would be magnificent, as this donation would contribute to the maintenance of Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga's prized property, Old St Paul's in Thorndon. Please contact ospfunctions@heritage.org.nz if you would like these, and we'll contact the first person who does so! Happy New Year!
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
