I am standing for the Whangarei Urban vacancy for the Northland Regional Council (NRC) I have been asked often " What precisely does the NRC do?" and "What will you do make a difference?"
I can answer this. www.youtube.com... is the video I was shown at our Candidate information session and makes it clearer what you will be voting for in this coming by-election - someone who will represent you and who can be trusted to make decisions for the best possible outcomes for Northland.
BE HEARD, BE SAFE, THRIVE
I am invested in our community. I live in our community and I have brought up my children in this community. We survive and thrive through our environment, and I want us all to be well and loving our lives.

Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a nasty, rusty surprise.
I'm certain I've seen something like this here in Aotearoa-NZ, but can't for the life of me recall where. It was in the back of the medicine cupboard. Let us know if you've seen, had - or have - one in your home.
This morning I received an email from NZ Transport Agency <nzta.govt.nz@connect.com.fj>.
NZTA have confirmed it is a scam.
Please be wary and check that the address the email is coming from is the correct address. In this case it should be @nzta.govt.nz

Rubber wheel on wider gate, galv hinges, drop bolts both gates plus new galv striker type latch. Made approx 14 months ago with new framing timber and recycled palings from old gates and fence. Wanting $80 for the pair, well worth the money.
The rest of the existing fence is free for the taking. Used palings - there's approx 88 at 1500mm high x 150mm wide x 15mm thick and they've still got some life in them if you like rustic and free. There's probably recoverable post and rail timber in there as well. Have a part 10 litre pail of fence paint/stain to match the dark colour that's free with the lot as well.
Need to get the fence removed by the 29th of January. I'm around for the removal with power tools etc if anything needs cutting up. We're in the inner city behind the District Court Building. Call Pete on 021-755705.

Everyone's favorite honey-loving bear in a red crop top has been around since 1926, when A. A. Milne released his first collection of short stories.
Back in 1914, a Canadian veterinarian named Lt. Harry Colebourn bought a real bear for $20 while serving in WWI. He named his new pet Winnie, after his native Winnipeg, and the cub ended up serving as a mascot for the regiment while he was stationed in England.
However, when the soldier left for France, he left Winnie behind where it was safer at the London Zoo.
A.A. Milne's son, Christopher Robin, saw the Canadian bear saw at the London Zoo and named a stuffed bear toy he owned, 'Winnie'.
The "Pooh" part of Winnie's name actually came from a swan. But the exact origin is hard to pinpoint: Some sources say that the Milne family met a swan named Pooh on vacation, and Milne also refers to a swan named "Pooh" in his poem called "The Mirror." "Christopher Robin, who feeds this swan in the mornings, has given him the name of 'Pooh,'" Milne wrote. "This is a very fine name for a swan, because, if you call him and he doesn't come (which is a thing swans are good at), then you can pretend that you were just saying 'Pooh!' to show him how little you wanted him."
So that was how Winnie the Pooh's name came about! The storybook character, Winnie the Pooh, was inspired by a stuffed bear A. A. Milne's son owned.
And for all those neiighbours out there - Have a wonderful Monday.

Starting a conversation about care isn’t always easy but like many things, sometimes you just need to take the first step.
To help nurture those conversations, we invite you to our Care Centre Open Days at your local Ryman village. A tour will give you first-hand experience of our village communities and the exceptional care we provide. Care options include the extra support of a serviced apartment, resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care.
