Hi if anyone has a spare bag of pinecones in their shed from last year can you contact me. I am doing some Christmas craft with children and need about 30 dry cones. I tried finding some but they have not dried out enough to pop open. Thanks

Will Taylor cooked the stir fry for his girlfriend on Sunday using a red capsicum purchased from Countdown Bureta Park the day prior.
Taylor said they inspected the piece of food and discovered a small needle had been inserted into the vegetable.
A Countdown spokeswoman said the store has referred the matter to the New Zealand police who will investigate.
"We take food safety incredibly seriously and will work closely with both the NZ Police and MPI to cooperate fully with their investigation," she said.
The capsicum was not the only fruit purchased last Saturday spiked with needles.
A strawberry was discovered to also contain a needle which was purchased at a FreshChoice supermarket in South Canterbury sparking an investigation from MPI.

Christmas is supposed to be the jolliest time of year - full of whimsical family reunions, selfless gift-giving and Masterchef-worthy feasts.
But sometimes this just isn't captured on camera. We're after those amazingly awkward Christmas moments that have been captured on film.
Maybe it was the time you went to visit Santa and your little one didn't want a bar of it. Maybe it was a self-timed family shot that went horribly awry. Or a Christmas meal that was more a festive fail.
Whatever the not-so-merry moment, we want to see it! Share your pictures and a little bit about them with us in Stuff Nation. We look forward to seeing them! Here's the link to contribute.

Is begging an issue in your community? Rough sleeping and begging within five metres of retail buildings in Tauranga has been banned after a controversial bylaw was passed. The public galley heckled councillors as they spoke at the meeting and were upset with the decision. To read more about this, click here.
So what are your thoughts on begging in Tauranga? Do you think the bylaw will help? Are you a business owner fed up with having rough sleepers on your doorstep? And what do you think about the $215,000 annual cost to enforce it? Share your views with us in the replies!

We love poppies, and this Tibetan blue (Meconopsis betonicifolia) is especially eye-catching. They are available from a number of nurseries, including Blue Mountain in Tapanui.
