This is a 24 page glossy magazine promoting our lovely region to 183,000 readers south of the Brynderwyns. The strategy is to encourage those readers to come north for a short break rather than getting onto an aeroplane and spend their money elsewhere. If you would like to promote your business, PM me and I'll get back to you.

Don't have a lot of money to splash around but am seriously considering installing a reasonably small water tank to catch rainwater. Needs to be reasonably close by and reasonable price.
Farmers used the Northland Field Days' opener to tell politicians how much the drought is impacting them. Some say more Government support is needed but Agricultural Minister Damien O'Connor disagrees. What do you think?
Northland principal rural fire officer Myles Taylor says lighting fires in extreme conditions like this is stupid and ludicrous, and could cause a fire with catastrophic consequences. He encourages anyone who sees smoke to ring 111. Why do you think people are still lighting fires?

Whau Valley Treatment Plant urgent repair work: Please REDUCE WATER USE if possible for the next 24 hours effective NOW.
Please avoid all non-essential use for the next 24 hours: save your washing till Wednesday evening, or put off doing the dishes. We appreciate the work being done to conserve water in the drought but for today and tomorrow we need to step that up even higher.
Background:
There has been a problem with a pipe which requires us to drain one of the tanks at the Whau Valley treatment plant and the repair is expected to take until 8pm Wednesday. ⌚
For weeks now you've been catching waste-water you can re-use on the garden, now Council is able to do the same thing on a grand scale. If you've got a bucket in the shower and you're chucking your dish-water on the vege patch - we're with you!

Parks and Recreation manager Sue Hodge says “It seemed logical to use some of the water which goes through multiple treatment processes at the treatment plant and goes into the wetlands every day. Using a bit of it to water our fields, trees and gardens will make no difference to the ecology of the wetlands, but will make a big difference to the District’s fields, trees and gardens."
“We make a big investment in fields every year. They are very important to the community, especially with the winter sports season coming up and we want to look after them as well as we can."

“If I hear music, I just want to dance – body seems to just move!” says dancer Audrey, 84. Poet Brian, 86, says “Poetry helps me to question and understand the meaning of life”, followed by a witty “– haven’t worked out what it means yet”.
As their residents blaze their own trails, Ryman matches that pioneering spirit. “Ryman villages offer living choices to suit everyone so that you can live the way you want.”
