Vaughan's Road to Te Oneroa or Ridgelea Rd a No Brainer

Alistair from Torbay - Long Bay

There has been limited publicity or discussion alerting ratepayer's and residence surrounding opening up Vaughan's Rd to Long Bay & Torbay by connecting either of the two options above is a no brainer, maybe that's the issue , the limited awareness is mostly driven by a few concerned & intelligent ratepayers, the main question is where are our local leaders, from any of the National Party, Act, or Labour, your all so quiet when practicality and commonsense is required, lets get an alternative to Glenvar Rd open NOW
Speaking of which, what's up with the major repair work presently being undertaken on Glenvar Road, please inform the thousands of residence who are affected by the ineptitude of Waka Kotahi which decision maker (please stand up) within Waka Kotahi decided that while the road lets not use our common sense and proceed with the long overdue 15yr plan to straighten and align Glenvar with Lonely Track, put in the Traffic Lights, and carry out your civic duty to do the best possible job that you've been elected to do, surely this is a "no Brainer"

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

William Sanders Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
