Brittany Keogh Reporter from North Shore Times

Hi neighbours, we all know Kiwis love coffee but a survey has found that Auckland coffee drinkers are more likely to buy their coffee than Kiwis from the regions. A third of Aucklanders buy at least half of their weekly coffees and most preferred a flat white. How often do you buy coffee out?

Auckland bus suspension: What you need to know

Caroline Williams Reporter from Auckland Stuff

The suspension comes after tensions between NZ Bus and union members as they tried to settle on a new collective agreement regarding pay and work hours. Union members had been declining bus fares from passengers, and planned to do so until Christmas before the suspension began. Now drivers will go without pay until Christmas Eve.
NZ Bus' biggest area is central Auckland, all of the Link services, and those serving the main isthmus arterials to eastern suburbs and along Mt Eden, Dominion and Sandringham Roads, as well as some to the outer west and northwest, and on the North Shore.
How has the bus driver suspension affected you? Let us know in the comments.

Hey fellow neighbors

Hope everyone is well and getting into the Christmas spirit,
Sadly not everyone will be having a good Christmas or in fact making Christmas this year due to something that effects almost everybody these days and that is CANCER!!!
I lost my poppa to it and it was the single worst thing to watch I’ve ever seen.

A group of friends and I are playing competing in the cancer society’s 72 hole longest day challenge on the 17th of January 2020.
This will be a day where we tee off at 530am and finish around sunset if we are lucky.
Playing 72 golf holes and walking close to a marathon in distance in the hot summer heat.

I am trying to fundraise as much as I can until this time and would be so grateful to anyone who can help me reach my target.
I have attached the link below where you can donate to this initiative which is truly one of the most serious and common diseases we are faced with today.

Thank you all for your time and donations
