A whirled of pain
- The Wellingtonista
- Now that the wind's gone (calloo callay!) and the sun's out (oh frabjous day!), wouldn't it be a lovely time to wander down to the waterfront and see the much photographed Water Whirler do its thing? Not so fast, matey boy, someone has had other ideas.

Tuatara Day at Karori Wildlife Sanctuary
- Karori Sanctuary Trust
- Come face-to-face with our unique living fossils and talk to the experts who study them. Some people call the Sanctuary �Jurassic Park�, referring to our trademark 2-metre high predator-proof fence. But recently this nickname has become even more appropriate, because the Sanctuary is now home to a prehistoric animal whose close ancestors were around with the dinosaurs.

Report on Activity Day
- ZL6QH Quartz Hill User Group
- As forecast we were greeted by a cold southerly blast at the Quartz Hill Activity Day on Saturday 4 March. The wind was extremely strong and the gusts often made it difficult to stand upright. The odd hail shower also made working outside less than comfortable :-)
