Poll: Are you doing anything for Halloween this year?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Has your community got anything planned for Halloween this year? We want to hear about anything scary, cool or quirky happening this All Hallows' Eve (Wednesday - October 31). (Please let us know if you don't want your comments published by writing NFP.)

The attached pics are from the Thrill the World event in Christchurch's Cathedral Square on Sunday, where 'zombies' gathered to dance to Michael Jackson's Thriller. The event was held in various cities around the world to celebrate how we are all one community, regardless of our political, economic and racial backgrounds.

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! 😱
