Good People

For Thursday, the 9th November at 6pm, we have the fascinating doco on the Second World War Artist, Eric Ravilious - Drawn To War.

Please note: This film is being shown once only. Don't miss it.

Our 8pm screening is the uplifting French film, On the Wandering Paths.

Thursday November 9th at 6pm
Eric Ravilious: Drawn To War - ONE NIGHT ONLY
(2023, Doco, UK, 88 mins)
Cast: Alan Bennett, Robert Macfarlane and Tamsin Greig.

Eric Ravilious was killed whilst working as Official War Artist in a plane crash in 1942. His life was as enigmatic as his artworks. This documentary brings to life the work of a unique and amazing talent and is told in Ravilious’ own words through previously unseen private correspondence.

"Exhilarating, enthralling and outstandingly beautiful. A revelation.”
- The Observer

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
