Purple Reigns at Bruce McLaren

Bruce McLaren Retirement Village

Purple balloons, purple clothes and hats, and even purple hair were on parade at Bruce McLaren Village as residents turned out for a special village walk to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s Awareness month.

The fact that everyone taking part knew or knows a friend or family member affected by the disease gave the walk extra purpose.

September is also the month for Ryman’s Everest-themed virtual walking challenge, where residents attempt to meet their target of either 64.4km or 128.7km.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Low life

Jonathan from Clendon Park

Hi Good Neighbours

Just moved into Pitt Ave just over a month ago, someone decided to visit my shed in the early hours of this morning and helped himself or herself to my weedeater, blower and my daughters bike that was a Christmas gift last year.

Whoever you are you will never be satisfy with your life, i hope one day you will go and find a job, instead of relying on other peoples sweat.

Hope also that what goes comes around and will bite you in your back side really bad.

Keep your homes safe good neighbours.

Have a pleasant weekend.
