Christmas - pop over to Greytown and check it out!
Greytown is putting the sparkle into Winter 2020 - looking pretty with gorgeous shop windows, tasty menus and fun things to do as they host this new month long festival. Each evening at 5.15pm a light show plays on the lovely old buildings. This Friday and Saturday Martin Bosley and Pinocchio Greytown present the Yellow Brick Road Oyster Saloon. From 5pm wrap up nice and cosy and order delicious, freshly shucked oysters under the warmth of the outdoor heaters.
Just one of the many Christmas treats.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

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?
