Bandanas for face masks

Jeff from Freemans Bay

I see Repco are selling Canteen bandanas for $5.10 each. They are 560 mm square so much better than a handkerchief. I have made a mask from a bandana - they end up at least 4 layers thick so they do work well but are breathable. You just need to find some medium size rubber bands in your house.

An ageing playground and park in central Auckland will be upgraded after eight years of lobbying from the local community.

Waitematā Local Board approved the project on Tuesday which will bring a new playground, basketball court and picnic benches to Home Reserve in Grey Lynn.

Board member Adriana Christy said the renewal of the park was overdue.

“There are a lot of young families who’ve been asking for a playground for a long time,” she said.

“The current playground isn’t fit for purpose it’s old, it’s been needing renewal for a while.”

A completion date has been set for December 2021 and the total cost of the project is $553,000.
