Have you joined in fun of the Greytown Festival of Christmas?
There's plenty of festival fun this weekend with a Greytown Christmas Market in the Town Hall
on Saturday from 10am till 3pm. Stock up on olive oils, plants, honey, arts and crafts, soaps, jewellery, beauty products, wooden handmade bowls and all sorts of other locally made products. 31 stall holders will be there. Meanwhile at Cobblestones there's a family fun day on with games and activities to join in. Martin Bosley's Yellow Brick Road Oyster Saloon pops up outside Pinnochio on Friday and Saturday evenings from 5pm and there's a whole new light projection show to see on the colonial buildings as soon as it's dark. It's really putting a sparkle into this winter. Come and see it!
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.
