Daylight saving comes to an end on Sunday morning, so don’t forget to change your clocks back one hour.

Today's eNewsletter lists a number of pop-up hubs for seniors throughout the Wellington Region with morning/afternoon tea or coffee or light lunch, where you can have a cuppa and a bit of a chin wag with old and new friends. See you there..
