Thank you
I would like to say THANK YOU to all the people that worked behind the scenes during lockdown. Yes, we thanked the doctors, nurses, police, emergency departments, chemists, and other frontline people. I appreciate what they have done for us and they have my sincere thanks.
I just feel there are a group of people that do not get any recognition such as the rubbish and recyclable collectors that continued to "clean up" our rubbish.
I am sure there are so many people we do not know about such as administration jobs behind the scenes to make sure it all worked smoothly.
If I have not mentioned any group, please let us all know so they can also get to be acknowledged for their generous contribution in keeping us safe.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME AND MY DEAREST ONES

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
