Sandbags

Adam from Birkenhead

We desperately need some sandbags to stop our garage flooding (again!!). Repeated calls to the council only got the response "we're not authorised to allow that". If the council can't help even in such a minimal way to *prevent* flooding before it happens, then I wonder why we "authorise" our banks to pay rates. Does anyone know where we can obtain sandbags (preferably free)?

I've tried Mitre10 and Bunnings. Trademe has some but they're expensive. Any ideas, folks?

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!
