Covid update - National figures
Only a small drop and I have met people who have caught it last week, one for the 2nd time, he had a very bad couple of days and is still feeling tired and out of salts. This person was out walking for the 1st time and told me to keep a wide berth. I would like to think people would do that sort of thing as a matter of course.

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?
