Alongside sewing and knitting, what other vital skills do you think are at risk of being lost?

"This is not the best photo of a variable oystercatcher - it's not even the best photo I took that day, but it is interesting. I noticed he/she was tagged - meet CT7. I snapped him/her in the Hutt Estuary on 12 January and sent a report off to the Banding Office as you do and got back a very interesting report about the bird.
He/she was banded on Bell Island, Waimea Inlet, Tasman on 28/05/2022 in his/her 2nd year. Sex is unknown. CT7 is a busy chap, since banding this bird has been re-sighted at Saxton Field, Stoke, Nelson on 28/06/2022 and 19/07/2022. This bird is part of a research study on the morphometrics, population trends, longevity and movements of variable oystercatchers in the Golden/Tasman Bays region.
So, if you see CT7 don't forget to report him/her to the banding office.
Variable oystercatcher/ tōrea (Haematopus unicolor). Bird #14 in 2023.

Delicous food on sale and cash bar for beer and wine. Why not book a gazebo for reserved seating with refreshments brought to your table.
Andrew London's quirky and whimsical songs reflect mainstream culture with gentle irreverence, and playfully lampoon many of society's obsessions and taboos. Themes run the gamut from rugby fans, driving habits, youth culture and weddings to male insecurities, technophobia, household appliances, pretentious socialites, and various other issues of concern to the average middle-aged, middle-class Antipodean baby-boomer. ‘Let’s Talk About Me’, ‘I Hugged My Mate’, ‘Middle Aged Man in Lycra’ - The titles say it all.
Delivery is wrapped in an easy-going and accessible 1940s-era ‘Hot Club Swing’ package, with occasional sallies into folk, blues and jazz; and the spontaneous banter transforms the show into more of an interactive cabaret experience for both performers and audience.
A book of 75 song titles has just been published under the title ‘let’s Talk About Me’, one of london’s most-requested songs.
London handles guitar and most vocal duties, accompanied by Kirsten London on bass.
For the Greytown concert, harmonica ace Neil Billington will be in the trio’s ‘third’ seat. London and Billington’s collaboration spans nearly 30 years, from their early Hot Club Sandwich days in Wellingtont o the present. More info at www.andrewlondon.co.nz...
Plus a superb opening set from Karen Clarke - all the way from Taranaki. Karen is one of New Zealand’s finest homegrown indie singer-songwriters. Firmly rooted where R'nB and Alt- Country collide she's well and truly earned her piece of the heartland acoustic music stage with decades of live performance and two albums under her belt.
Her strong, sometimes silky, sometimes sultry, smoky vocals over driving rhythm guitar commands respect. Fans enjoy hints of Billie Holiday, and Tracey Chapman in Karen's mahogany vocal palette as she channels Sister Loretta Tharp's 'mother of blues' on stage determination.
When performing she weaves warm, intimate audience connection via a blend of original work and upcycled favourites in shades of blue. You'll remember you've met.
This will be a stunning afternoon. Amazing cafe menu including Butter CHicken and Rice, Asaian Chicken Salad and Lasagne with Garlic Bread, as well as Berries and Icecream, Lamb Sliders and of course BBQ Sausages. Beer and wine on sale too. Book a gazebo for premium seating. Tickets at Eventfinda and from Cobblestones. Note we have a postponment date of 25 March if the weather is unkind.
