Easter Themed Event
Cross Road is a presentation through drama and music of the events surrounding the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is an attempt to explore the facts, feelings and impressions of people who were witnesses to this history-defining event in a contemporary way and to highlight the Easter message.
The team mounting this production are all locals: Averil Bennett of Titahi Bay is the script writer, assisted by musicians Felicia Edgecombe and Rosemary Russell and Ken Edgecombe in production. It is based on Biblical accounts of the events, also Gordon Jaquiery’s recent publication: Eyewitness, Stories of Advent and Easter. Titahi Bay Community Church and Trinity Baptist are presenting the event, with participation from friends in other churches. It is on for three nights: Friday 22nd March, Saturday 23rd, and Sunday 24th at 7.30 pm at Titahi Bay Community Church 25 Mana Avenue. Supper follows. Entry is by Koha.

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
