Headstones @ Taita Cemetery
I just visited my nana's gravesite yesterday, and I know it's been a while. However on my visit I was sad and disheartened to see her hers and many other headstones covered in moss/lichen. It was raining lightly so I used my fingers to rub away at the moss/lichen which came off ok. When the weather clears I'm going back with hot soapy water and a toothbrush to finish cleaning it. 😇 Can I please suggest if anyone hasn't been to visit a loved one @ Taita Cemetery please do so, and help out by cleaning their headstone and perhaps the neighbouring ones. No tools are required, just water and a cloth and/or an old toothbrush.
Picture below shows moss/lichen.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
