Looking for free microwave for an old neighbour

Markus from Green Bay

I have an old neighbour in her mid 70s (and with health problems, eg she can only use one arm) on a very small pension. After Xmas I was shocked to hear that she was basically living on Chinese Noodles all the time - especially as I had just eaten a large portion of leftover ham from another neighbour (and felt quite guilty about that). Since then I'm looking after her a bit and started to bring round dinner and leftovers occasionally (I'm not exactly rich myself, but if the small guys don't help each other out …). The problem is that heating up leftovers is difficult for her with just one usable arm - so I'm looking for a free microwave for her. If anyone has one then I would appreciate if she could have it. Thanks. Markus

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
