TODAY on Whananaki FM: at age 16 local artist and academic Richard Coldicutt lost both his parents and his little sister in an airliner crash. Since that pivotal moment Richard's lived his best life - and it's life full of stories! One of my fave Meet Your Neighbour's so far as Richard shares some of his extraordinary life from 9am today. This episode could've gone on for hours and can't be missed. Plus - the Mystery Sound is back and worth $250 at the shop! Play after 9am!

A pitch report from Whananaki North Road this morning! People are still driving way too fast on this road, PLEASE slow down - chip is going everywhere and there are two primary school camps at the lodge this week. 30kph feels about right.
