Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?

Motorway cycling and walking

Kate from Belfast

I used to walk this frequently a couple of months ago, but I was put off by a stocky guy on his bike slowing down near me and saying "hi beautiful" and looking back continuously at me as he cycled off. I didn't walk this track again after that until yesterday, where i saw him again and he said "geez you're gorgeous". I guess this may seem trivial but as a female walking alone I do feel more vulnerable....

Video tape cleaner

Lee from Swannanoa - Ohoka

Hi

This is a bit of a longshot but thought I'd give it a go.

I collect old films on video (like we used to get at video rental shops etc) and have a few tapes with mould on them and need cleaning.

Does anyone have an old video tape cleaning device or tape winder device they no longer need?

I'm planning to build my own video cleaning device as I have quite a few to clean but thought I'd ask here first just in case someone has one gathering dust in their garage somewhere. :-)
