The lake in the centre of a North Canterbury town is off limits for the fifth consecutive summer, and some residents are tiring of the ongoing health warnings.

This year's health warning for Pegasus Lake was issued by the Canterbury District Health Board on January 28, two weeks earlier than last year, after potentially toxic blue-green algae (planktonic cyanobacteria) was found.

A warning has been issued for the man-made lake every summer since 2014-15 and usually remains in place until April.

There's nothing worse than a soggy sammy. The trick to keeping kids interested in eating their lunch (and stopping yourself getting bored making it) is mixing it up with variations on a theme that you know they already love.

So instead of a plain ham and cheese sandwich on sliced bread, try folding slices of ham and cheese into wedges of crunchy baguette or a soft bap. Save time and stress by using Mainland’s convenient sliced cheese – available in Edam, Tasty, Colby and Swiss to suit your family’s taste.

Head to mainland.co.nz for some quick and easy cheesy ideas.
