Our SPCA Pet of the Day this week is Pippa the dog.

"My ideal home would be one with a nice backyard, that is big enough for me to explore and potter around in the sun as I love toasting myself on a sunny day. I very much enjoy my daily walks so would love a family that would be keen to go out, explore with me and show me all the wonderful things out there.
As I want to keep all the cuddles and tummy rubs for myself I am looking for a home as an only dog. Don't be fooled by my size, I can be cheeky and have jumped fences before, so am needing a home that has high fencing. I could live with older kids that are confident around big boisterous ladies like myself.
I do however come with a medical waiver my new home would have to be aware of. So if you think I'm the girl for you please contact the canine team for more information."

Anyone with an internet connection can gain a glimpse into the secret lives of kororā thanks to new cameras set up by Urban Wildlife Trust and Niwa.
Kororā, or little blue penguins, are found around New Zealand’s coasts and grow to only 35 centimetres tall – the smallest species of penguin in the world.
They visit land between June and March each year to lay eggs, care for their young and moult before returning to sea to feed during April and May.
Two high resolution cameras and an external microphone have been installed in a little blue penguin nest box in Evans Bay, with Kororā Cam now streaming straight to YouTube.

It's Canasta on steroids, 500 taken to a whole new level of excitement.

The best way to start your Bridge odyssey is to join the right club. One that offers lessons to help you over the steep learning curve and where experienced players are keen to mentor newcomers. The right club will become your second home and its members, new friends.

Karori is that club for Wellingtonians. Lessons are about to start. A warning, bridge can be addictive.

Have you lost your number plate?

Nicole Neighbourly Lead from Khandallah

I have seen that a number plate for a 2008 VW Golf is laying on the front lawn at 45 Boxhill. If it’s yours you may want to grab it from there.

Have a great day. 😁
