MIA Clutha soldier info found
Great news! As a result of our story on Stuff, social media posts and in this week's Clutha Leader, Clutha District RSA has found details for the remaining four WWII soldiers for an Anzac Day project. RSA secretary/treasurer Pauline Soper had a number of people contact her, and is absolutely thrilled to be able to complete the 35-soldier project, whose names and info will go on crosses beside the Balclutha cenotaph. Great work NZ.
Looking forward to the Clutha Valley Flower Show's 45th "Sapphire" celebration from 3pm Friday at the CV community hall.

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?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
