27 August - Inverlochy Cushion Concert with the Little Symphony Sax Quartet
Join us for the August Cushion Concert at the historic Inverlochy House with LITTLE SYMPHONY SAX QUARTET . Not to worry if a cushion's not your thing...we have chairs!
This ensemble features some of the heavyweights of jazz wind playing from the Wellington scene (Oscar Laven ~ Bassoon/Saxophone, Jake Baxendale ~ Bass Clarinet/Saxophone, and Kaito Walley ~ Trombone), and features mainly original music with a few fun arrangements sprinkled in. Also guesting is Tristan Carter on Violin.
Limited tickets available so book early to avoid disappointment. Door sales may be available. Tickets $20 Book here www.inverlochy.org.nz......
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
