JACKSON ST FOR JACK OF ALL FOOD
Last time I wrote about Petone (Pito-oni) was to say GET OUT for those on the plains for the overlapping sea is on its way, quicker than was envisaged only a few years ago. Just refer to relevant insurance premiums if you don't believe me.
But while we are still here, Petone's Jackson Street is a little Melbourne for its food and drinking outlets.
Last time I counted there were 38 places along a kilometre stretch of Jackson Street that provided food and refreshments - mostly by way of restaurants - but someone else has done a recent count and got up to near 70.
That latest figure represents a wide variety of choice. And parking though limited and mostly in ultra narrow streets , is still free and that's the way most Petone-ites want it.
My birthday is coming up so guess I will be somewhere in Petone if not Brewtown, on the night.

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?
