"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."

You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.
Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

A rates hike of 7.49 percent is expected in the Hurunui district.
The Hurunui District Council adopted its draft budgets for the 2023-24 annual plan at an extraordinary council meeting on Tuesday, April 18.
Chief financial officer Jason Beck said the proposed average rates rise of 7.49% was higher than the 4.99% forecast in the 2021-31 long-term plan.
He said the difference is due to rising inflation and interest rates.
But it could have been worse.
Council staff began the process with an average rates rise of 11.78%, before trimming it back to 9.53% after the growth of the district was factored in.
It was further trimmed by reducing the council reserves budget and increasing the dividend paid by Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa.
The draft annual plan will go out for consultation next month ahead of its final adoption by the council by June 30.

North Canterbury residents may soon get some answers about the future of after hours healthcare in the region.
Te Whatu Ora Health New Zealand has accepted an invitation from Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey to appear at a public meeting in Rangiora on Thursday, April 27.
Doocey called the meeting in response to community concerns at the lack of progress on promised public health services at the Rangiora Health Hub.
The former Canterbury District Health Board announced in December 2020 its intention for an after hours facility to be operational by late 2022.
‘‘That date has come and gone and we’re now hearing it could be three years away, so it is important Health NZ comes back and answers the community’s questions,’’ Doocey said.
He said he hoped the meeting would provide some clarity around what hours the facility will operate and what services would be provided when it eventually opened.
‘‘I will be keen to hear what healthcare services can be fast-tracked and what can be put in place in the interim.’’
Te Whatu Ora entered into an agreement with South Link Health Services Group in 2020 to develop a family health and urgent care centre
at the Rangiora Health Hub.
‘‘This agreement is subject to several conditions,’’ a Te Whatu Ora spokesperson said.
‘‘Once these conditions have been met, South Link Health Services Group will be granted a ground lease and must complete this development with all reasonable speed.’’
The spokesperson referred questions about the progress of the project to South Link Health Services Group.
In the meantime, after hours provision in Rangiora included Durham Health being open Saturdays 9am to 12pm, telehealth GP consultation services through providers such as PracticePlus, and the St John nurse phone triage service.
Residents can access the triage service by calling their GP phoneline after-hours.
The Pegasus 24 Hour Surgery in Madras St, Christchurch, was also available to North Canterbury residents.
The Oxford Community Health Centre also provided after hours services to its registered clients, with a triage nurse and virtual GP
consultations.
Doocey launched a petition in November with Rangiora residents Sandi and David McLean, which he planned to present to Te Whatu Ora at the meeting.
South Link Health Services Group was also expected to be represented at the meeting.
