He came out about a year after the murder of his classmate Jeff Whittington.

He still remembers the shock waves the hate crime sent through his Wellington High School community in 1999.

How can we better celebrate the Pulse?

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

In all the fuss over Covid-19, it has largely been forgotten that the Pulse recently won the ANZ Premiership Grand Final.

Hey neighbours,
With domestic travel resuming, the school holidays approaching and people starting to plan for the longer break over summer, thought I would write a quick message to say I'm on the lookout for pet care and housesitting opportunities.

My name is Caitlin and I have been caring for other people's pets for a total of over 10 years now. I have a full driver's license and my own car so getting to different areas around Wellington is not a problem. I work in the central city during the week but am happy to do once or twice daily visits, or stay at the house if you prefer. I can also give medications if needed and will care for your pets as though they are my own (sadly I haven't had my own since we lost our dear old cat in 2018).

Reasonable rates depending on needs and references available.

Contact info: easiest contact method is either a message on Neighbourly, an email to chearfield14@gmail.com or a txt message to 027 821 3969 (more likely to get ahold of me than a phone call though I will call back if requested).

:)

Habaneros for sale (like chillies but much hotter)

Hi everyone,
My little 12 year-old sister and I have some more freshly-picked, pesticide-free habaneros off our bush that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money.

The $1 coin is for size reference, these habaneros are much bigger than chillies I have seen at the local supermarket retailing for $1:30 each (picture included indicating size relative to a $1 coin) and are really hot so you only need to cut up a small portion into food. Habaneros store well in the freezer so any leftover can be frozen until needed for up to a few months.

$1 each or 6 for $5.

I also have some that I have frozen that we would still like to sell at a rate of 2 for $1.50.

Covid-19 safety precautions:
It is recommended that you rinse produce thoroughly with hot water.
