Clothing buy, swap and donate - self service
Yay I have put out on my front porch some clothes and shoes. A few items are priced (shoes mainly) but all other items are donation OR swap. Sizes mainly 14 -20 but there are a few smaller items. Shoes of all sizes available. All funds raised go to a local (Lower Hutt) charitable trust called Greenstone Doors. Visit www.greenstonedoors.co.nz... to find out more. Just put any donation in one of the paper bags provided and put it in our letterbox (no space under the door sorry). We are at 23 Burnside Street, Waterloo. Can I ask that if you are going to donate any clothes that they be clean and in good condition and that you leave the garment rack tidy? Many thanks in advance for your support of women and their whanau.
Begonia house to be demolished at botanic gardens
It's outrageous that the Wellington City Council are going to demolish the Begonia house at the Botanic gardens. This is an asset. One would have thought the green faction of the council would have supported fixing it. It's strange no one has questioned the price required to fix it. Cycle ways more important than begonia house i think not

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.
