I don't know about others but I am heartily sick of the exorbitant amount we have to pay them (ever increasing) when they perform on a shallow, advice-based, role in the environment matters they are supposed to be focussing on and rather dream up employment and business promotion schemes (using our money), scholarships, etc. that they were never mandated to do.

Laura Welsby is determined to keep her plastic-free wholefoods store Forward Whangarei running, despite the coronavirus lockdown hitting just one week after the store opened. The shop uses reuseable jars so customers can grab zero-waste foods. What do you think? Would you use this shopping method?

"I'm bunking school", he said one day.
"What classes are you missing today?", I asked.
"Art & Graphics mainly!"
"Art?" I said, "You love Art!"
"Frankly, Mum I get more Art done at home and I've got an assessment coming up."

"Why do you get more done at home?", I asked
"Because the teacher always asks me to help everyone else with their Art and I know Photoshop better than the teacher!"...

We are looking for 3~5 beef or beef-cross calves to rear for the future.
Prefer polled beef as no horns to deal with, but will consider others. We have had both friesian and jersey cross, heifers and steers, but we are open to other options.
We can feed powdered milk for young calves, so age is not an issue if they are off their mums.
Not urgent, but would like something by July/August. Contact us if you have calves or will have an excess arriving soon.
We are just west of Whangarei, past Maungatapere.
