Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?

Ridiculous Fuel Pricing!
I opted to drive down 5kms to Waitomo Epsom, where fuel prices are lower compared to anywhere in Mount Roskill. On a full fuel tank of about 40 liters, you'll save around $8.5 overall, and this is without any discounts at Waitomo. Mobile Epsom is still cheaper, and the savings would have been $12 or more.
This math of pump pricing is beyond me as the source/starting point of the tankers is more or less the same and the suburbs aren't that far away 🤔.
