But a councillor wanted to rethink this approach and its proposed Māori names, which were suggested by the district’s three iwi and a historian to reflect local cultural and social history.

Will anyone have spare black currants in the next couple of weeks? A friend has volunteered to make a summer pudding for our book club lunch if we can get her some fresh black currants! Jenny 0223844012
