Parents have criticised Crayola for calling its new blue crayon Bluetiful because some people think it will confuse children learning to spell. Will any of our parents be scrubbing Crayola off the shopping list or is it just a bunch of nonsense?

I got 1 tallboy which needs a bit of work. The railings or roller (shown in the photo) needs changing. This can be DIY I supposed. This had been in our spare room for 2 years now so thought of disposing it. $20 ONO

Although nettle can make a nice tea on occasion, the perennial nettle (Urtica diocia) that our pest plants team deal with can form dense patches that compete with other native species for space and light. Livestock also don’t like it which reduces the area available for grazing. Not to mention it… View moreAlthough nettle can make a nice tea on occasion, the perennial nettle (Urtica diocia) that our pest plants team deal with can form dense patches that compete with other native species for space and light. Livestock also don’t like it which reduces the area available for grazing. Not to mention it stings! (Which is not a reason for controlling it of course but we are happy about that).
The upright herb can grow up to 1.5 metres tall and has leaves that are heart shaped and toothed, covered in hairs that may sting. It’s often found in older gardens, forest margins, pasture, streams and river banks.
Our pest plants team are mostly finding it around rivers and streams in the Wairarapa, but have also found it in areas which are grazed by livestock. So, if you think you’ve seen perennial nettle, the team wants to know. They’ll control it for free! Contact pest.plants@gw.govt.nz.

As part of this, we have donated them two vehicles – a Ford Focus and Mazda CX-3 which look fantastic and will be seen around town a lot!
Capital City Motors have been a proud Wellington business since 1923 and with that longevity comes a responsibility to give back to the community and we couldn’t think of a more deserving organisation than the children’s hospital.
