Gifts for Teenagers Urgently needed.
Kia ora everyone,
We have our 'Christmas Community Lunch' for our Strathmore Residents this Tuesday 18th Dec. 12pm.
Christmas presents kindly donated over the year are getting wrapped today but we have noticed that all the fabulous toys and books are for the younger children only.
We need gifts for Teenagers so they don't miss out.
Beach towels, Vouchers and or any ideas for young adults are appreciated.
Thank you kindly in advance!
Please drop your donation to Strathmore Park Community Centre Friday 14th Dec 7.30am - 1.30pm or Monday 8.30am - 2pm.
Or please call 021 027 91402 for other times if this does not suite.
Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

What flowers are blooming in your garden?
Kia ora neighbours,
In our September mag, Amy Roberts from Villaleigh Plants has a list of her favourite blooms for long display. "If you want a long season, look beyond the flowers," is her advice. Here are her picks: Geranium phaeum 'Mourning Widow', Salvia leucantha, Hylotelephium 'Autumn Joy' (pictured), Eryngium pandanifolium and Alchemilla mollis.
Have you got them in your garden? In fact, we'd love to see what you've got in bloom now. Post a photo and share the joy!
