As a semi retired driving instructor I used to own one of Auckland's well known driving schools. I am now offering people my driving lessons experience for free with all the tips and tricks on how to pass a driving test. Most parents do a great job of coaching their children but don't have the tools to get up to test standard. Tips like how to navigate roundabouts and do observation points, lane changing procedures, flush medians, merging, speed zones, how and when to do the MIB - men in black procedures etc and the list goes on.

Please Note : I am no longer taking people out in a car for driving lessons but have decided to do this neighbourly gesture for people so they can pass their test at VTNZ and avoid critical errors.

Stress tends to build up during the day. When it's time to go to bed, your mind is probably racing, and you're probably thinking about tomorrow's to-do list while trying to keep track of everything.

You may shift your focus away from your current situation by immersing yourself in a good book. According to one study, reading for six minutes can reduce stress by up to 68 percent.

My favourite pass-time is foraging and creating botanical and floral designs, having studied floral art and home styling in Melbourne a few years back. Presentation is key when selling a home and touches of fresh florals or mix of trendy dried & preserved floral wall art breathe life and maximise presentation. One of the designs and styling put together for a Milford property.

Kia ora neighbours. A “quick thinking” member of the public saved a toddler from a near-drowning incident at Albany Stadium Pool on Sunday has been thanked by Auckland Council.

Daniel Hendy, the father of a 2-year-old boy, had been at the pool with his son for an hour when he noticed an 18-month-old under the water in what he described as “a freak, horrible situation”.

“...I quickly knew something was wrong, and I sprinted over,” he said.

Hendy was about 5m away when he “stormed” over to pull the child from under the lane rope.

“Staff came over, rolled him over and started trying to resuscitate him, I could feel his belly was full of water.”

The child was revived and taken to hospital in an ambulance.

Dave Stewart, head of active recreation at Auckland Council, thanks Hendy for his quick thinking and crucial response to the situation.
