Give a World Vision Smiles gift guaranteed to change lives!

No other gift can compare to a pathway out of poverty. A goat will give a family nutritious milk and extra income! Make every gift count this Christmas.
Each gift comes with a card explaining your extraordinary impact. No wrapping – win!

Where has that wonderful thread called "Be a tidy Christmas kiwi" gone?
It was posted by The Team (at Neighbourly) and I'm thinking that they may've meant to close comments but have instead deleted the whole thread.
What an absolute shame as there was some great reading in there… View moreWhere has that wonderful thread called "Be a tidy Christmas kiwi" gone?

What an absolute shame as there was some great reading in there and so many great ideas and hints for this time of year and current situation/s.
So many people contributed to it and it would be nice to read the rest of the comments from who posted after we had gone to bed.
If the powers that be at Neighbourly Notices (as I couldn't find the tag for The Team at Neighbourly) could reinstate it please, that would be absolutely grand.
Thank you in advance😉
It’s hard to put your finger on why Ryman care centres just feel different. Perhaps it’s our constant drive to improve through innovations such as our myRyman Care app and Delicious menu, or perhaps it’s the genuine warmth of the care we provide.

Our 'Experience the Care Difference’ guide paints a picture of the care, kindness and comfort that our residents experience every day. It offers a comprehensive guide to rest home, hospital and specialist dementia care, as well as our serviced apartment options. So, for the inside knowledge into what makes a Ryman care centre different, check out our guide.

The masks feature in 42 machines at bus and rail stations along with ferry wharves.
Auckland Mayor Phil Goff has praised the initiative.
“The more simple and convenient we can make it to wear a mask, the greater the uptake will be," he said.
“This will mean passengers who may have lost or forgotten their mask can get one quickly and easily and avoid missing their journey."
AT has bought 1500 masks to go into into the machines.
Aucklanders can buy a pack of four masks for $9.
What do you think of the initiative?

Aucklanders will see their rates bills soar 5 per cent to help counteract a $1 billion fall in council revenue over the next four years.
The one-off hike, up from a planned 3.5 per cent increase, will add $36 to the rates bill of an average value home before annual increases return to the previous path of 3.5 per cent rises.
The proposed increase is included in the update of Auckland Council's 10-year budget, which starts in July.

Meanwhile, locals will be pinged for using a hose without the correct nozzle.
The council says splashpads recycle a high percentage of water, and the centres themselves have made significant water savings in the last nine months.
Do you support council turning on splashpads in the drought?
