“I would like to nominate and THANK our great neighbour's living at Viv Davie Martin Drive for their creativity and huge effort during lock down. They lifted all our spirits with their daily Teddy bear reenactment on how to keep busy. Each day people came to see what Teddy bear was up to. With keen interest kids in our neighbourhood even gave Teddy a proper name...meet Vincent LOL! It's through times like this that such acts of goodness should be acknowledged and the memories they hold forever treasured. A selected few photos of Vincent's daily lockdown activities "thanks Vincent :)"

To whoever thought that they could remove a basketball stand with hoop from the lamp post up at the end of Brookfield Ave Onehunga!

It was not free for removal, anytime I have items available for free I advertise here. That is my 9 year old sons, hoop and yes he still used it. No I cant replace it. If you could return the hoop, I would appreciate it because I dont want to explain to my son why people think it's alright to a help themselves to things that do not belong to them!

Thanks
