Ngati Te Paea Whare Stollen
I saw this news tonight and thought who would do such a horrible act such as this.Did Noone seething taking place or even cared if they.seen or heard something that was suspicious or have we as a society and community don't care or give a damn.I am not from here originally but now call this area my home and have met some really nice people and The Neighbourly Community care about what's going on and helping others.I hope whoever did this is found and held responsible.They may be regretting it eventually as every whare I beleive carries a life force and the ancestors and those who hold a lot love and its spirit will make these people want to take it back and put it right.I wouldn't want that on my doorstep.So we as neighbour's should be looking out for things that look a bit strange,its not being nosey its looking out for everyone.

OCTOBER'S WEATHER IN KĀPITI
This third spring month in Kāpiti was milder and sunnier than average, and for three weeks we also seemed to be heading for a record dry one, but rain here and over most of the country on the last week changed that.
We ended up with 110mm of rain (airport), but this was only 12mm above the historic average for this month that is frequently our wettest. Despite the rain, we had the equivalent of 15.5 sunny days, slightly above average.
Our daily average maximum temperature was 17.8, almost 0.4C above average and 0.7C above last year, and our overall mean temperature was 14.2C, 1.3C above last year, and the warmest in central New Zealand.
November could average around 20C, as it often does, so we can look forward to the possibility of enjoying our first summer month.
