A colleague just told me about a friend of his, who has two sets of twins - no mean feat! The thing that stuck out for me, though, were their names: Bernie and Dorothy, and Betty and Delilah.

The thing that stuck out for me, though, were their names: Bernie and Dorothy, and Betty and Delilah. We figured they'd been named after family members, or Mum has a love for old-fashioned names. But it got me to thinking - do you have an unusual name? Where did it come from? Has it been a blessing or a curse? My brother (Kylee) tried to buy my name off me when we were teenagers, but he's now settled into his moniker. Of course, it gets a little confusing sometimes, with his partner named Kylie...

Paper wasps can be easily identified by their long, drooping back legs and laid-back, slow style of flying.
Asian, Australian and European paper wasps have gradually made their homes around our houses and fences and over the past few years and while they are useful for some unwanted bugs like the great white cabbage butterfly, unfortunately they aren't picky and have been feasting on our monarch butterfly caterpillar and other useful native bugs as well.
At Wasp Wipeout we are working hard to help raise funds to wipe out the most invasive species of wasps - the vespula (common and German) variety which inhabit a lot of our bush areas and regularly invade picnics and barbecues. To help us fight this species you can donate here

I'm just interested, with the new year under way, what's your best tool for staying organised? Do you use a planner, a calendar, something on your phone, or do you just wing it? Photo is from my bullet journal for reference. :)

Duvauchelle gets its water from Pipers Stream and, once treated, it is stored in a reservoir. When it rains a lot, the stream can become very dirty and our ability to use it is reduced until the water clears.
Depending on how much you use, there is a chance the reservoir may run out.

Depending on how much you use, there is a chance the reservoir may run out.
What you can do to help:
• Keep water use to essentials – food preparation and hygiene;
• Cut back your shower time;
• Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth;
• Avoid watering lawns and gardens;
• Don’t hose your boat or other water craft. If you must clean it, scrub it with bucket of water.
It would help us if you could share this information with your neighbours.
If you would like more information, call us on 941 8999 or 0800 800 169.
