Garage or Hall Needed for February Garage Sales
MMMT has been gifted a container load of stuff to sell! We would like to hold two garage sales in February to coincide with the student flat influx. Do have a space we can use? It would need to be in Hamilton, be close to or visible from the road (ie not down an alleyway and have plenty of nearby parking. On the Friday we would lay sheets over nay of your articles left in the garage, bring and lay out boxes and tables. On the Saturday and Sunday we would man the garage from 5.30-3.00pm. On the Sunday afternoon and Monday morning we would re-pack and remove all boxes and tables. If you can let us use such a space, you would be helping us pay the Registered Music Therapists who work with patients in the residential dementia care facilities we serve. For details of our work, see out website, Facebook page or the attached copy of our latest newsletter. If you can help, phone Kath: 021 08187218.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?
The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.
One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
