This picture of a well known Wellingtonian should not be too difficult. What do you remember about her?

On an average an adult should have a well rested sleep of 7-9 hours. An uncomfortable mattress, sleeping position, and even excessive use of blue light before bed can be the cause of an unhealthy sleep cycle.
Begin the journey to a healthy sleeping habit by popping into one of our 13 Beds4U store and our sleep experts will help you find the right mattress :)

We're looking into how some common claims about NZ stack up and would be interested in your thoughts on whether New Regent Street in Christchurch deserves its title of 'NZ's most beautiful street'. Do you think it is the best-looking street in the country? Or is there another street you think is more beautiful? Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it included in an article. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

It's too early to tell whether an alert level change is needed in Wellington, according to Chris Hipkins. This comes after a positive Covid-19 case flew from Sydney to Wellington on June 19.
Four close contacts have so far been traced and others are being identified.
Timing of symptom onset indicates the traveller was infected in Australia before flying into New Zealand.
The traveller had one dose of the Astrazeneca vaccine, with the situation being described as low risk. The case was using the Covid-19 Tracer app.
Locations of interest are as follows:
- Qantas flight QF163 that arrived at 12.05am on June 19
- Rydges Hotel from 12am June 19 to 9.10am June 21
- Unichem Pharmacy on Lambton Quay from 10.38am to 11.48am June 19
- Te Papa from 3.05pm to 5.45pm on June 19
- Te Papa's Surrealist Art exhibit from 4pm to 5.45pm on June 19
- Jack Hackett's Bar from 8.45pm to 12am on June 19
Wellingtonians are encouraged to check their movements around June 19 to June 21 and to continue to check the Ministry of Health website as more locations of interest may be added.
For more information visit the Ministry of Health website.
Neighbourly will update this message as further information comes to hand.

Up to five people pitch their ideas for a community project, initiative or small business on the night to vie for the ‘pot’ of cash up for grabs. The audience pays $10 each directly into the 'pot' as they arrive, hear the pitches, enjoy a bowl of delicious soup with The Clareville Bakery bread, and vote for their favourite idea. At the end of the night, the idea with the most votes goes home with the pot of money to carry out their project or a discrete part of it.
All are welcome to come along to the Events Centre Foyer this Thursday 24th June, 6pm kick off, join in the fun, and support good stuff happening in Carterton. More info at kapaicarterton.nz/events
And! If you have a great idea for a project, small business or initiative that will benefit our community and want to pitch - get in touch hello@kapaicarterton.nz - we might be able to sneak you in as a wildcard!
