Agapanthus are flowering freely at the moment so it is a good time to think about how you can stop them from spreading by deadheading them.
In some parts of New Zealand they are considered an invasive weed.

Bryan Waddle took over from President Bill as emcee for the evening and did a great job of entertaining the troops and generally causing mayhem. The bowling culminated in a competition, with everyone bowling their balls from one corner to the other across all the lawns. There were some interesting results! Booby prizes were awarded for the worst bowl (Marg), clearing the corner and landing in the ditch (John), worst performance of the night (Philip). Second prize went to Nigel Brown, and the winner was our newest member, Dallas, who managed to get within a metre of the corner with inveterate skill (although she claimed it was a complete fluke). Bryan is in the photo, not because he won a prize but because he made it such fun for everyone. And, as he said, he couldn't have done it without the background help which always comes from Les who was watching the dramas unfold from a strategic position on the side-line.

President-Elect Kay with her helpers had created a splendid social evening with an Irish joke from Mike, singing from everybody, very ably accompanied by Graeme on the keyboard, and a very difficult Irish quiz created by Kay. Out of a possible score of 28, two tables came close with 16 and 15.5 respectively - so close that both tables received prizes. The table that scored 6 received the booby prize! There were also prizes for the best and worst dressed, judged thoughtfully and creatively by Peter, nefariously 'aided' by Jim. They decided that the worst dressed was John O'Connell (because they'd never seen an Irishman in a suit) and prizes for the best-dressed men went to John Barber with Graeme Tongs runner up, and to the best dressed women to Donna Reed with Linda Sinke coming in a close second. Kay writes, 'Irish Night! Thanks - Wow! What a wonderful group of Rotarians you are. Many thanks to everyone for entering into the spirit of our Irish night. The touches of green and the more elaborate costumes set the relaxed mood. I particularly loved the hats and wigs. Thanks to the hooters. To Graeme Tongs, Philip Whearty, Peter Sinké, Phillip Reidy, Bryan Waddle, and Mike Doig – thanks for your grand efforts in helping make the evening a success.

What do you think about the Wellington City Council's move to ban "bottomless brunches?"
All-you-can-drink alcoholic beverages over a restaurant brunch could be in jeopardy after councillors indicated a ban on such deals.
Several establishments across the city offer unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages for a fixed price and this has led to complaints of excessive drinking.
Wellington City Council spokesman Richard MacLean mentioned that several complaints were being followed up by council and police regarding these "all you can drink" deals.
“The ‘bottomless brunch' arrangements are a clear breach of liquor-licensing laws - which are designed to rule out irresponsible consumption of alcohol and intoxication,” MacLean said.

The flag was hoisted up the flag pole on the Tītahi Bay shoreline to show the local RSA’s support for the Wellington Pride Festival – which opened on Saturday, March 13 – and members of the LGBTIQA+ community who “have served, or continue to serve our great country”, the post read.
It was thought to be the first time a pride flag had flown at a war memorial in New Zealand.
