Visit to our garden

Hasan from Bucklands Beach

Dear Neighbours,

A big THANK YOU to all neighbors that dropped by during this weekend to have a cup of Traditional Moroccan Tea or to view the latest selection of our Back-to-Earth Planting Pots, or to purchase one of our exquisite indoor plants.

I must say that it was a rich and enjoyable experience that I only had in our neighborhood when I was a child.

My wife and I had few calls today asking to repeat the experience as it brings back memories of the good old days when people, total strangers, would just walk into the driveway and say hello.

I have been living in this street for more than 3 years. Now I can say that I know at least 8 people by the first name. I felt embarrassed not to know everybody on my street.

Sincerely

Hasan Abdoh

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Share in the comments below if this has ever happened to you.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
