Women's Friendship Group
We are a group of women who meet once a month for a coffee and a chat (usually the first Sunday of the month). Your age is not really important because we have "younger" and older" women in the group but most of us are over 60. This is often when women lose "connections". For example, we retire, friends move away or pass away, our children are older so opportunities to meet through our children are decreased and so on. I found myself in one of those categories which is why I started the group. I have met some wonderful women in the year the group has been running. We are still a young group so ideas are growing or changing but basically we connect at least once a month.
Some of us also go to the Senior's Sneak Peak Movies on Wednesday morning at Brooklyn Penthouse, meeting for a coffee before we see the movie. There is also the occasional outing etc. This is not a "formalised " club but just a way of meeting and connecting with other women in the community with a view to making "closer" friendships. We keep in touch by email on a weekly basis and welcome those who would like to join us. Please contact Miriam, initially through neighbourly if you are interested in joining us.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
35.5% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
64.5% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
