*  Yes I agree wth person Sat paper. My husband is in the same boat. Keep the work in the Bay! Shame on the HDC. Time for a change.
*  Sprays and pesticides alongside all the processed food on shelves. Did you ever wonder why the cancer rate in NZ is as high as it is?
*  Only Domains is sorry that we had incorrect information about Hawke's Bay on our website. An update will be made to remove the incorrect information. We are proud to be growing our business in beautiful Hawke's Bay.
*  Did you know we apparently eat so many preservatives our bodies take longer to decompose?
*  I'm from Waipukurau and the council here really needs to get its act together. They need to finish the job they're on before starting a new one. Its ridiculous. JMH
*  To the men and women who have serviced our underground utilities for so long, thank you. HDC, if it wasn't broken to begin with why replace it?
*  Cabbage trees - please no. Okay when young, a ghastly sight when older. Big leaves everywhere makes a place look derelict.
*  Thursday TV2 8pm. Australian programme - young girl arrested for swearing in public. Fantastic. May we follow in their footsteps
*  Napier does not want to amalgamate with Hastings for the same reason Hastings doesn't want to join us. We are unique! Let's keep it that way. ST
*  Great to hear Ross Holden on Saturday mornings. He even makes the weather forecast sound alive. Pity he isn't still doing the local news during the week. Instead we just get a repeat of what we read in the paper the night before. GL
