The Block NZ is back on our screens on Monday, but let's hope there are no more silly decor challenges and over-the-top reserves.

1946.
The workshops stood at what is now Tower Junction. They built, maintained and repaired railway stock and were a major employer in Christchurch.
The Christchurch terrain suited cycling and the city was known for its bikes. Few workers owned cars, so bikes and trams dominated city streets after the 5pm knock-off time.
The 40-hour week and eight-hour working day, introduced 10 years earlier but in general practice only from 1946, contributed to the 5 o'clock rush.

Once our community pharmacies are gone they won't come back, leaving the market to the intruders - in this case Australian giants Chemist Warehouse and Countdown with their in-store pharmacies. The intruders don't charge the dispensing fee to lure customers in but they still have to pay it to the government. I know in many households money is tight and 5 Dollars can go a long way. But if you can - please continue to support our local pharmacists. I would hate to lose the knowledge many of these pharmacists have accumulated and I have saved many doctors visits by simply talking to our pharmacist. I go to Hei Hei pharmacy in Wycola Ave.

This year we are hoping to find someone that will come to the courts where we play and take out club team photo's. It could be any time on a Saturday from 8:15 (our very young FF teams and U12 team that play at this time) through to 2:30pm to have any of our age grade teams have their picts taken before they play at 3:05pm. I would know in advance the game times of all our other teams so over about 3-4 Saturdays we could potentially have all teams photo's taken. Hagley Park is looking really lovely with their trees and all the leaves on the ground and we would like something a little different this year for our club pic's. We are happy to pay for your time as long as it is reasonable. If you are interested and keen, please email the club at hornby.netball@gmail.com and we will get back in touch with you.

He didn't look in good shape, but he had the most beautiful dog with him. Clearly very well looked after and well-fed. The dog had a good leather lead. The dog was ravenous. It was trying to eat plastic and then a rotten banana. I bought the dog some food, but when I went back to get more, the man disappeared. Unfortunately, I could not take a photo, neither do I know what breed the dog is. I can say that it was a male dog, medium size, unusual colouring - sort of brownish/blackish. If you have a dog that has gone missing and looks similar to the one I have described. I can fully describe the man who has it. Feel free to message me.

How's your community doing after the floods? Are you satisfied with the emergency response?
It's been over a week since 400% of the monthly average rainfall caused flooding in Canterbury, with multiple districts plunged into a state of emergency.
River engineers are working across the region, with sites being strengthened by machinery. Environment Canterbury Rivers manager, Leigh Griffiths, says that teams are continuing to monitor rainfall and river levels across the region.
"We're working closely with Civil Defence and the MetService to monitor the situation and will be posting rainfall and river flow updates on our website as the situation develops. We suggest that people avoid rivers and check the road conditions before travelling," he said.
The weather event triggered a state of emergency, hundreds of evacuations, and closed roads and bridges throughout the region. The red heavy rain warning was issued on Saturday night, the second since the warning's inception.
