Local facts, not a live news feed. In production these blocks will filter by locality tag.
Queue and photography rules belong on the parish site. This page is for neighbours, not a pilgrimage brochure.
School and hospital traffic is the weekday pattern; Panguni crowds leak over from the tank.
Listings should say floor, High Road distance, and lowest-floor rain history.
