31st May '08

I arrived at work on Monday morning and the office was a buzz with the Crusaders win over the Hurricanes. There is no denying the fact that if our sports teams do well the local province prospers. Not only in money terms but also mentally, it does put people in a positive frame of mind. As most of you will know if the Crusaders win tonight it will be a fairy tale ending to a number of player’s careers and more importantly to New Zealand’s best coach - Robbie Deans, so make sure you are at the game tonight to enjoy a great night. This weekend is also an exciting weekend for Horncastle Homes with the grand opening of the first stage of the ‘Streamside Villas’ development. This is an over 60’s freehold lifestyle development and when fully completed there will be 48 units and an impressive furnished clubhouse with a plasma TV, luxurious furniture and a fully equipped kitchen for people to meet and enjoy each others company. The villas are on separate titles and are being sold and managed by a lovely couple, Jim and Annette Turner who have been involved in many of these types of projects in the past. Nestled beside the beautifully landscaped Steamwharf Stream you will be hard pressed to find a better development in Christchurch. Enjoy your long weekend and Go the Crusaders!!
