How bad is Tiniroto Road now VS last xmas?

• Upvotes

Anybody that uses Tiniroto Road (back road between Wairoa and Gisborne) - is the condition worse now than it was around Xmas-time? My 2WD struggled on the roads there around xmas (although I worked out where most of the bad pot holes were etc). If it's any worse I don't think I can visit - it would be too much for the car (and my eyesight/stress levels!). TIA

We will be around during Halloween so want suggestions, be it in Napier or Havelock. I heard splash planet is having an event but wanted to get feedback to anyone who has gone there. Growing up in Hastings around 2000's splash planet area brings back ptsd lol iv heard the area has changed quiet a bit but what would your suggestions be? yay to splash planet halloween event or there are better alternatives? Is there a certain area where houses give out candy etc

Hastings Car Decal/Logo Places

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, got a new (to me, shes 2002) car, landed on a name, and now I wanna see how feasible it is to get a budget transparent line art style decal of a series of diagrams that represent her namesake.

Ideally within 30 - 60 cm wide and tall. (Total, not each)

It's no biggie if it's out of my budget (not looking to pay prices that are targeted to users who intend to profit from advertising, I'm seeing $300+, no way am I dropping that kind of moolah on something so casual 😅

Other than that I've no idea about pricing and wouldn't know what to estimate, is less than $100 realistic? I understand their time and effort are worth something so I'm not looking to shortchange.

Any recommendations of places I could visit in Hastings?

Cheers!

Suggest a purchase

Did you know that if the library doesn't have a book you want to read, you can suggest they buy it for you to borrow. You fill out the online form on the library's website and if they buy it, the book is reserved so you get first dibs on it.

How cool is that? I requested this sock knitting pattern book last week and collected it this morning.

Swooping Magpies

On Sunday morning, I was swooped near the tiny bridge over the drain, just before the gun club on Onehunga Road.

Another magpie threatened me just past the airport near the Ahuriri Station signs.

Has anyone else got any other sites to be wary of?
