Brewtown Market Not Rated Among Best

Michael from Trentham

If size and cover were factors, Brewtown's Farmer's Market would be ranked number one in the country. And this also takes into account train station and on-site vehicle parking convenience.

But the Upper Hutt version of a Farmer's Market couldn't make the top seven in NZ according to a recent Stuff item on the best Farmer's Markets in NZ.

The Brewtown complex has two huge covered areas sited parallel with each other for its market - one for produce and the other for everything else that one would likely see at a fair. Rain and wind are not prohibiting factors as they would be for each of the top seven named.

So it is a farmer's market with a twist. Only live music entertainment are a missing item to date.

Most of the produce comes from the Wairarapa and Horowhenua which are the food bowls of the Wellington region and marks the food as locally farmed.

DOES SKY BOX REACH FOR THE STARS

Michael from Trentham

New Sky boxes coming my way as replacements. They are valued at $200 each.

Sky Tv rate them as a great step forward.

Lots of TV viewers must have the new model by now, so how much of an improvement are they?

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
