I note that Yvonne McDonald Lead from Casebrook has not posted recently. I was always inspired by her wide knowledge and her gifted offers of help and suggestions. If anyone can advise me that she is well and OK, I would be very grateful.
That all her postings have been removed other than "wee owl" also gives rise to my concerns. She is one neighbour that Neighbourly can not afford to do without. Best wishes to all that work as hard to make Neighbourly worthwhile.

Hi everyone,
With overseas tourists set to return to NZ shortly, we're looking at doing a light-hearted piece on the odd questions Kiwis have been asked about NZ. You may have seen the post doing the rounds on social media at the moment asking whether English is spoken here and suggesting NZ is a state of Australia (see below). Have you ever been asked anything surprising about NZ? Feel free to message me or comment below. Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in the article. Thanks very much for your help and happy travels.

1812 overtures

Don from Parklands - Marshlands

I felt to play the 1812 overture. Seeing the current situation in Ukraine where the russian invaders are unprepared and suffering frostbite and lack of food I wonder if they see the irony of that favourite piece of music at the moment.
I have a dog that likes showing off her musical prowess and she certainly gave a good rendition as she joined in.
Wonder what the 'score' would sound like it if I played it in reverse - would that help their retreat be even more unpallitable. There is always some worse off than us.
