Need some new candles?
Hey Neighbours,
We love supporting NZ businesses and Downlight Candles is a New Zealand-owned and operated fragranced soy candle company. Each candle is hand-poured and the entire manufacturing process supports employment opportunities for young adults with Down syndrome or learning disabilities.
Next time you need a new candle choose Downlights and support Kiwis and help be a part of changing workplace norms by switching to social gifting with Downlights!
(P.S. $1 from every candle sold is donated via the Downlights Charitable Trust!)
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?

Ginger and White Stray Cat
This cat has been coming around regularly to our home on Ellerslie Panmure Highway Highway (opposite side of and close to Z petrol station near barrack road) since June of this year.
Please contact me if this is your cat. We will be getting in touch with cat rescue place as we recently found out "he" is actually a "she" cat and is getting attacked by the male cats in the area. We also think she may have had kittens somewhere but don't know where.
