Tooting Trucks
Curious to know if other residents are woken during the early hours of many mornings (frequently around 3.15am) by the very loud and often long tooting truck horns as they leave the NZ Courier Post depot, Kaiwharawhara. We're in Wadestown, and this has been an ongoing issue. We've contacted Courier Post numerous times and are assured the problem will be addressed, and for a brief time the tooting stops, but never for long. We're just wondering if we're the only ones annoyed by this seemingly inconsiderate practice or are we simply over-reacting? :-)

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
