Free Concerts
Jonathan Lemalu is singing with Virtuoso Strings on November 12th and 13th. Jonathan is one of the best singers that NZ has ever produced – he is a Grammy Award winner, a Professor at the Guildhall in London, and has sung in opera houses and concert halls all over the world.
Virtuoso Strings is an orchestra of string players from Porirua and surrounding areas. Tenor LJ Crichton and soprano Katherine Winitana are also singing.
I have written several new songs for this concert – it will be an exciting evening! See you at Aotea College on the 12th or St.Andrews on the Terrace on the 13th! Free entry, koha appreciated. Suitable for ALL ages!
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.

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?
