Wallowing about Wallaceville

Michael from Trentham

The Breeze radio station morning show are creating a song about Wallaceville and want people to send in suggestions of things that are famous, infamous (I suppose), interesting, unique, or just plain and simple about Wallaceville.
Have you got something that might suit?
Don't mix in what actually lies in Trentham or the rest of Upper Hutt.

The new Wallaceville Railway Station is a feature and with an increasing importance, fish and chips etc takeaway shop Scoops is back alive and kicking after a year burnt and gutted, Quinn's Post has a history and an association with the Trentham Racecourse going back to the heyday of NZ horse racing.
Are there any very notable/prominent people who lived or live in Wallaceville?

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
