A friendly reminder for anyone who would like to help Wilson, we are collecting 3XL-4XL new clothing for him. His nurse, Zoe, informed me he was in particular need of extra clothing and this was one way our community could lend a helping hand.
Please drop these off at the Onehunga Business Association, 149 Onehunga Mall this week and we will have them delivered to Wilson.
As a reshare, below is the photo of Zoe accepting our community card on Wilson's behalf (he was still sleeping we I visited)

Officer Andrew Savage and his partner Arlo joined us to show off Arlos impressive skills. Arlo is off to Wellington shortly to do the last three weeks of his training before graduating and hitting the streets of Auckland. Arlo is 2 1/2 and weighs in at over 40kg.....not something you would want to mess with! The focus on his handler was amazing (which is a good thing!) they ran through obedience and bite training. Lots of questions were answered.....a few curly ones as well! Thank you so much to the NZ Police for sharing Arlo with us.

The forage was then followed by a gourmet luncheon and some of the menu items were prepared using the Kai cooker.
The main highlight was the Kahikatea Berry Jelly which consisted of berries foraged from a year ago.

I have copy-pasted part of it here for quick read.
A man has successfully beaten a speeding ticket issued after the car he was passing sped up and he decided the only safe course of action was to break the speed limit.
The High Court at Auckland accepted Alex Mercer's appeal of an earlier District Court decision and the infringement notice was tossed out.
Mr Mercer didn't dispute that he exceeded the 100km/h limit, but said he did so in a snap decision to avoid death or injury.
"I went 100km/h and I should have easily overtaken them and then it appeared that the front car had accelerated at the last second so I believe I was going to hit that car," he told the court.
"If I slowed down I could've been stuck between those two cars which could've caused an accident as well. If I were to slam the brakes my car could've spun around into the traffic from the other direction, because of that I had to accelerate to make sure I got through."
He argued it was common sense that he shouldn't be penalised, calling the infringement notice "just not right".
"I had to make a snap decision so I'd rather take the safe option which results in no one dying than, yeah, having an accident."
Justice Timothy Brewer accepted that the situation was not of Mr Mercer's making and he couldn't see why the lower court upheld the speeding infringement.
"In reaching this conclusion I have thought about policy considerations. Driving is a dynamic activity. Conditions can change suddenly, and drivers have to react to them suddenly," Justice Brewer said.
