Wishing you all a Happy Christmas Preparation Time

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Spent an hour or so lining up at Kirsten's Corner today - I must say, although the sun was quite hot, I actually really love lining up for the best cherries in town. I always end up having a terrific chit-chat to someone in the line and it is almost like a 'mandatory rest and for my brain and natter away to those around me'.
And then, to my delight, I see others in the line that I can give a wave to, or say a quick Hello to as we come and go.
So, I wonder what your traditions are leading up to Christmas?
Whatever they are, I hope you have a peaceful time -
albiet for many I am sure, a very busy time getting ready.
Bright Blessings Neighbours and Friends
for a very safe and Happy Christmas Eve.
Warmest regards
Rhonda Diprose

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
