Dana and Hamish adopted of Klio and Quintus from the SPCA two years ago.
“Today is the two-year adoptaversay of Klio and Quintus (Charlotte and Quinn). How pawsome! We wanted to let you know that they are both doing very well. Klio went from being very shy to now insisting on always being on our laps. Always. Even to the point of trying to get up before we have fully sat down. Quintus was diagnosed with diabetes last January, but has responded very well to the insulin injections and continues to be quite chatty and fluffy. Wishing you all well, and thank you again to the whole team -- your mahi and aroha make such a difference in the lives of kitties and humans alike.”

Knitting patterns

Jim from Island Bay

Would anyone be interested in a box of old (pre-decimalization) knitting patterns that belonged to my mother, a professional knitwear designer and instructress? I need to declutter but these are just too interesting to throw in the bin.

Peter Neilson - former MP for Miramar

Chris from Hataitai

I was saddened to read of the death of Peter Neilson, a former MP for Miramar 1981-1990 (as the Rongotai electorate was known at the time).

Peter was a kind, caring and extremely clever man.

Gone too soon at just 67. Sincere condolences to his wife Megan and whānau. RIP, Peter.
