Wild weather coming - tie down the trampoline!

The Team from WEL Networks

We’re preparing for stormy weather so help us keep you, and the power network safe.

Tie down the trampoline, stay away from downed power lines and don’t try to remove vegetation or objects caught in lines.

WEL has field crews on high alert in preparation for expected heavy rain and high winds which could cause damage to its network so if the wild weather causes power outages residents are asked to be patient.
We’ll be asking crews to work in challenging situations. If their safety is compromised in any way they will make the site safe and return at a later time to complete repairs. We apologise for the inconvenience this might cause for our residents but the safety of staff will be highest priority at all times.

• If you have any concerns regarding the electricity network call WEL Networks on 0800 800 935.
• To stay updated on power outages visit www.wel.co.nz....

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
