Mahurangi Matters – Off the Record

Firies know their onions

Safety first was definitely the order of the day at a recent Warkworth Volunteer Fire Brigade Sausage Sizzle fundraiser outside Repco in Morrison Drive, which raised almost $200 for Leukaemia & Blood Cancer NZ. A combination of extreme care when placing onions on sausages and bread together with the prudent signage obviously did the trick, as absolutely no onion-related injuries were recorded throughout the event.

Drones & doves

Sudden panic gripped the owner of the doves released at a local Armistice Day celebration when she saw a drone hovering nearby. Apparently a wedding catastrophe, where a dove and drone collided, had left its scars!
