Have you ridden the Glen Afton Line?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The platforms were crowded and there were plenty of smiles as trains chugged up the Glen Afton Line.

Have you made it to the beach this summer?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Waikato lifeguards might have been “bloody active” over summer, but they’re pleased with beachgoer behaviour and don’t have standout rescues to report.

After last summer’s destructive storms and torrential rain it’s no surprise people are packing out the beaches.

Welcome to the second of this series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with organising and decluttering expert Peter Walsh.
