Maria from Melrose

Hi Neighbours
At St Anne's hall in Newtown (end of Emmett Street) there is an art sale between 10am and 2pm Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd. The work is mainly by Ray Ritchie who has exhibited in the City Gallery and in Newtown. There are also works by his wife Margaret. To see some of Ray's work watch www.youtube.com...
Some of the work is for sale by silent auction, with the auctions ending at 2pm on Sunday. There are also many pieces that are for sale that you can make an offer for. There is a wide variety of work ranging from still life studies, to landscapes, to portraits of politicians, to quirky and humorous social commentary.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
