Fundraising for the Patoka/ Puketitiri/ Rissington community.
Hi neighbours, I wanted to feel like I was doing something to help people massively affected by the cyclone, so I have 'adopted' this community. A chopper will be flying much needed goods into them and this Give a Little page (see link below) is to fundraise for that. If you have animal feed you would be willing to donate: dog, cat, chicken or calf food, I am willing to take a load down to Taupo to the chopper base. I live near Matamata and could collect feed between here and Taupo. Please contact me if you could donate some feed and if we get enough for a load, I will go down on Tuesday or Wednesday. If you prefer to donate cash to Give a Little, any amount would be most welcome. Many thanks.

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?

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
