My daughter Elizabeth

Avryll Dawn from Hornby

This was just sent by e- mail from my girl in France......
Dear Mum,
Just a quick note. I hear from Kiwi friends a concert I did appeared on the NZ news. Probably the most recent from what I hear.

I was interviewed by Jude Dobson who was over here.

Nothing spectacular. They snuck up on me while I was rehearsing alone so was interviewed tired, stinky and no make up. Not even decent clothes. It is what it is.

Will write more when get over my cold.

Love you
E xx

What I am asking...did anyone see this on TV just recently, because it must have been one news bulletin I didn't watch...wonder what the segment was. At one time Elizabeth was in the Army Band (first girl in) and now teaches as well as being a respected and popular performer..Just wonder why Jude Dobson was interviewing her and how it came up in the mainstream news.

If you saw it and remember it, can you please let me know what it was about....and which channel it was on because it may be possible to You Tube it - something like that......still my girl..."stinky, no make up, not decent clothes"........Elizabeth has long blonde (assisted) hair and is quite petite, and looks just like her gorgeous and multi talented Mum.....
Thanks guys....

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
