Menzshed. Under new management.

Ric Coleman from MENZSHED, Hastings.

Hi All. I've got the new Menzshed open at the Hastings A&P Showgrounds, thank-you to our Mayor, Sandra Hazelhurst, on 1st September, the ribbon was cut. My health has been failing for a while, and I have resigned as Chairman, and handed over to my Vice Chairman, Robbie. 06 875 093. Sorry, my sense of humour might have got the best of me at times on these posts. I'm sure, Robbie will look after Menzshed, as I have tried to do, since it's beginning in 2015. To all the customers and friends I've made in our growing Menzshed, Hastings: You're the best. Cheers. Ric Coleman. Look after Menzshed, and they will look after you. I te rangimarie. Kia koa.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
