It seems like a geeky thing to say, but everyone in school probably secretly looked up to that one artsy student who could draw near-perfect circles with their pencil.

Some might have convinced themselves they’d be able to snap up the talent once they were grownups, but if adulting has taught you anything, skills don’t come naturally with age.
This game proves drawing a perfect circle is just as tricky as it was when you were a child.
This is a perfect game to wind down on a Friday while preparing for the weekend.
A warning though, it is addictive to try and beat your 'best score'😉
Have fun😉

While out on my walkabouts I have found a few plants that I either have forgotten the name of don't know it. I have tried to find the exact names of the following plants using various apps to no avail, so I thought I would ask the very helpful & knowledgeable people out here in Neighbourly land.
The first post is a beautiful tree/bush I came across with what looks like two colours for flowers. I know that it was two plants right next to one another. The flowers are bell like, waxy and very pretty.
One red and one white - both with yellow centres

"I think we would have got strong support from across Auckland and the strong diversity of the city," Mr Goff said."What we are doing to tackle climate change will be a big issue, it's a big issue for my generation and my children's generation." He also said he would prioritise a review of the Auckland Council structure, starting with the CCOs. "That will be one of my first tasks, getting a high powered group together to work with government." "I want this city of ours to be world class, inclusive and have an environment we protect, nurture and sustain." "I believe we can make this city a fantastic place to live in, work in and enjoy." Mr Goff was told the result over the phone at his election event in Kingsland this afternoon. Goff said he regrets the rivalry between himself and Tamihere "verged on personal at times." "I prefer to debate the issues, not the individual," he told the crowd at Auckland bar, The Kingslander. Craig Lord was in third place, with 25,000 votes. Only a third of New Zealanders voted in the election. "I think that's a real challenge, not only for us but right across New Zealand that only a third of the people actually went out and exercised democratic privilege," Mr Goff said.

What's more, the salaries and benefits of the leadership team at Panuku have risen by 22 per cent in the past year, from $2.7 million to $3.3m. MacDonald is now the second highest paid CCO chief executive, behind Watercare chief executive Raveen Jaduram, whose salary is about $775,000. His salary package rose $50,000 this year. Jaduram is the top earner in the council family, earning more than council chief executive Stephen Town, whose salary rose by 1 per cent to $698,000 this year. MacDonald's 14 per cent salary and bonus increase follows calls by Goff for CCOs to show financial restraint on salaries at the top level. The mayor's calls were heeded by the board of Auckland Transport when it appointed new chief executive Shane Ellison in 2017 on a salary of $575,000 - a $100,000 cut from the salary of former chief executive David Warburton. Ateed chief executive Nick Hill has received a pay rise of about $10,000 to take his salary to about $425,000. Regional Facilities Auckland chief executive Chris Brooks received a 2.5 per cent pay rise this year, taking his salary to $480,975. Executive team staff costs at RFA rose by 30 per cent from $2.3m to $3.1m last year. All up, ratepayers paid $25m for the salaries of executives at Auckland Council and the five CCOs last year. Speaking after a MYOB mayoral debate, Goff carefully chose his words to criticise the Panuku decision.
"I think that any salary of that dimension is a handsome salary and you need to demonstrate you are delivering the results to achieve that salary. "They [Panuku board] need to exercise constraint on salaries at that level." In a statement, Panuku chairwoman Adrienne Young-Cooper said much of the extra money paid to MacDonald came from an incentive scheme and the rest from a 2 per cent pay rise. She said the Panuku board established a performance-based reward scheme for staff based on achievement of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Last year, the average payment was 10 per cent of salary with MacDonald receiving a full year's payment, she said.
MacDonald has been in the news recently over a private helicopter trip to the Bay of Islands for a day of sailing on a superyacht, which was picked up by the Serious Fraud Office in an investigation over the sale of council's Civic Administration Building. The SFO cleared Panuku of any wrongdoing over the sale but raised concerns about a possible conflict of interest involving MacDonald's trip - signed off by the former Panuku board chair Richard Aitkin - saying "its acceptance was ill-advised". Young-Cooper said performance-based payments are standard industry practice for senior executives. The board reviewed the scheme in June this year and agreed to maintain it for another year to remain competitive with the market, she said. Following a furore over rising salaries and a $405,000 severance payment in 2017, Town said in a letter to Goff that council salaries do not include variable pay components such as bonuses or incentives, which are common in the private sector and some public sector entities. Australian banks and their New Zealand offshoots are overhauling executive bonuses following a royal commission investigation into misconduct in Australia's financial industry. Goff has promised a review of CCOs if he wins a second term, saying one of the focal points will be responsiveness and accountability. "I share the frustrations of Aucklanders with some aspects of CCO performance and delivery, and concerns about whether they can be held accountable," Goff said at the launch of his CCO policy in May.

Sky TV also recorded a record low share price on the NZX, dropping by 18 cents (16.22 per cent) to as low as 92c. Since the decision was announced, the media had been inundated in emails from disgruntled sports fans. Rurally based cricket fan Lyn said they had a poor Wi-Fi connection and had already missed out on the Rugby World Cup coverage. "My reaction? Awful and gut wrenching," Lyn said. Robin England also weighed in: "Living rural and having limited rural broadband to be able to stream mean we will have to top up and that costs us a fortune. "So looks like we can no longer support cricket in New Zealand now." Jeanette Holman was as equally dismayed about the prospect of having to stream the cricket. "Gutted they can't get Rugby World Cup right ... dreadful coverage ... come on Sky get your act together ... how did you drop the ball again?" she said. The announcement sucked, Allan said, and he would be cancelling his account with Spark, "I do not want to live stream anything let alone sport." Kath Winn said her family were big sports fanatics and they were looking forward to the conclusion of the Rugby World Cup and for Sky to take over again. "The [Sky] filming and presentation are years ahead of Spark, plus of course far more professional announcers who know their sport." Meanwhile, Craig Kensington has taken aim at Winston Peters. "What really annoys me Winston, is that you promised before the election that we would emulate Australia and have major matches in all codes free to air..
