I have just created an event that our Church is putting on this coming Saturday - its a completely free, no-strings-attached computer fixit day at the Epuni Baptist Church Hall: www.neighbourly.co.nz...
This is open to anyone who has problems with their computer.
You only need to bring along the computer "box", Leave your screen, keyboard, mouse and cables at home! Unless they are part of the problem.
If it’s a laptop you need fixed, make sure you bring the charger with you. We will attempt to rid your computer of viruses and spyware, and will install free anti-virus software for you if you wish.
All Services on the day FREE!
Computers will be fixed on a first come - first served basis.
If the issue is a hardware problem, we will try to diagnose the issue and advise you as to what is required, but will not have any spare parts available.

There are some really awful people around at the moment. This is what happened on Sunday.
We live in Hinemoa Street opposite the Waiwhetu Stream. At around 3.40 in the afternoon I was looking out my window and saw a car pull up and start to feed the geese and ducks out the window. Then The passenger an asian man jumped out and threw himself onto a goose. he picked it up and put it the boot of the car.
I immediately ran over and stood in front of his car to stop him moving I also called my husband to help. A lovely man was riding his bike and saw it and stopped to help me. The driver tried to drive into me but I didnt move. He tried telling us it was his pet. These are wild geese.
They had a cage in the boot and some wire all ready to catch the poor bird like they have done it before. My husband took the bird from the car and released it. I then moved out of the way and after lots of abuse from the driver they drove off threatening to come back and get more.
No one should be allowed to take these beautiful birds and certainly not like this. they are all starting to have wee babies at the moment the whole thing was so upsetting to me. Another neighbour further down the road also saw it all happen.
Please keep a look out for this car and if you see them by the stream go over and watch them lets all stop this happening.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
