I have a few boxes of very old records that belonged to my father which I would like to pass on to someone who might be able to enjoy them. Some are 78's and consist of Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, a boxed set of Readers Digest Big Bands, plus lots more and some are 45's which consist of Cubby Checker, Michael Holliday and others. There are also CD's and some tapes.
I also have a record player which doesnt work, but does have speakers.

A 110kmh speed limit is to be introduced on some New Zealand roads.
With 245 deaths on our roads already this year, some are asking if more speed is the right answer.
Will an increased speed limit be a good thing for Kiwis?

Already we have attended two grass fires, which highlights that regardless of the recent rain fall vegetation is getting drier and in the case of these fires very easily ignited. The wind also helps with rapid spread.
No fire restrictions are yet in place but do keep an eye on public notices and the "having a fire" web site (havingafire.org.nz). Any restrictions or bans will be published. The web site shows a very accurate map of what restrictions apply in each area and further information about permits and BBQ's etc.
In the urban areas of Whangarei do be aware that a permanent restriction is in place on backyard burns. These are Regional Council restrictions to limit air pollution. Permits can be obtained from the Regional council.
As a rule of thumb; season or no fire season outdoor fires always pose some threat of spread so best to not have them if at all possible.
If you do; please ensue you take proper precautions to ensure it is done safely and under the right conditions.
Come down and check out the Artisan's Fair Market this Saturday. Christmas is getting closer so time to start thinking about presents. Buy something beautiful & unique from some of Northland's most talented arts & crafts people.
The jetty along the Hatea Loop will become a beautiful little over-the-water stopping point by Christmas.
Who out there in the community normally has a flutter at the Dargaville races. Will you be going on Friday? (Nov 11) Will you not be going because the special licence that has in the past allowed punters to bring their own booze has been turned down?

Have you always enjoy the laid back atmosphere of this country meet?
