Let's Talk About The Weather

We can blame show-man, no-man Donald Trump and inadequate recycling stations (or lack of) for our misery, but we can't blame either as yet for the weather..

There is no argument that since mid-winter and up to now in Wellington-Hutt Valley we have had a continuous spring or to put it another way, we are having a lovely winter for the last nine months.

This year I did get a touch of summer in Ohope which suited its name - we live in hope.

Methinks that we might get a nice March-April but who needs 'summer' then as the temperatures are unlikely to reach much past 18c..

The Guns and Roses concert and the Sevens event on the Sunday both at Westpac Stadium summed up our summer: piss poor!

Protect your child against most HPV cancers

Ministry of Health

From 2017, HPV immunisation will be free for everyone aged 9 to 26. That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.

From 2017, HPV immunisation will be free for everyone aged 9 to 26. That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.

HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop, the viruses are mostly transmitted by teenagers and young adults but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they are young. Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their life. Protecting children before they are exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.

For more information about HPV immunisation, see www.health.govt.nz/hpv
