Meadowbank Toastmasters - Tuesday, September 7th (Tonight!) - Welcome, Visitor! See what Toastmasters looks like and what belonging to a club can do for you!

Barry Shaw from Meadowbank Toastmasters

Most people visiting a Toastmasters club for the first time and being asked why they considered coming to the club usually describe themselves as "shy", "unable to talk in front of a lot of people" and "not skilled in speaking".

Most people visiting a Toastmasters club for the first time and being asked why they considered coming to the club usually describe themselves as "shy", "unable to talk in front of a lot of people" and "not skilled in speaking".
(Doing this actually starts the change process!) (That's why we ask!)


A few weeks later, they look back at how they began and report their transformation: "I talk to the boss now", "I don't quail at the offer to lead the office meeting" and "I have learned that I can learn"!


These are the success stories I love to hear.


What about you?
Ready to learn and grow?
And succeed?


See you tonight ONLINE on ZOOM.

Auckland City Council Dog rules under lockdown 4.

On the Auckland Council Website is a rule that in Lockdown 4 all dogs need to be on a leash at all times even in leash free areas.

This is to prevent covid Delta spread and to also protect emergency service workers who might need to become involved.
Owners need to be in control of their dog at all times - always difficult when dogs run free. I was a dog owner and always walked my dog on a leash so I knew I had control at all times.
I have seen quite a number of dogs running free on Roberta Reserve Beach - if you look on the Auckland City Council website you will find that this area is out of bounds to low tide to support the wading birds which are rapidly depleting in number. However, the dogs can swim in the "pond" beside the bridge when the tide is right.
Evidently there is a considerable fine if the ranger finds a dog on the mudflats.

Aucklanders are being forced to evacuate their homes after severe rainfall overnight caused localised flooding.

Around 50 to 60 homes have been evacuated and an emergency shelter has been set up at 6 Henderson Valley Road.

West Auckland has been hit the worst with flooding in Helensville, Kumeu, Henderson Valley and Rānui.

Firefighters received around 170 weather related calls overnight.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said evacuation advice overrides Covid-19 restrictions.

Auckland’s two vaccination centres at the Trusts Arena and the Airport have been damaged and will not open until 11am.

SH16 through Kumeu is closed due to flooding between Matua Road and Riverhead Road, and Waka Kotahi has reports of fallen trees and slips across the wider network.

MetService said heavy rain is expected to continue throughout Tuesday.

Neighbourly spokesperson Sarah Moore encourages people to check in on their neighbours - especially if they’re elderly or alone.

“But ensure you're abiding by Level 4 rules consider emailing, texting or using Neighbourly to send a message. Even if they're doing well, the connection will mean a lot,” she said.

“When there's a break in the weather carefully head outside to check whether anything is blocking your drains or has come loose in a storm. Don't rush - things could be slippery. If you do notice damage make sure you take photos in case you need to lodge an insurance claim.”
