Another great resource, if you haven't found it already; the Christchurch City Council are updating Newsline constantly, and have the latest news from Civil Defence, emergency services and police. Stay informed, and please, stay away if you don't need to be there.

For anyone who has had to evacuate their homes we have a rabbit hutch that is not being used and would love to look after your rabbit or guinea pig until things get sorted.

This means some buses will not show in our "next bus" online tools and most bus finders displaying the ETA's of buses on street will not work. It is likely that our systems will be affected for a number of days and we ask that if your bus does not appear on "next bus" tools that you use the bus timetables instead. Metro thank all fire fighters for their hard work and dedication to keeping our communities safe.
As a result of widespread power outages north and east of Christchurch, we are aware there are numerous traffic lights affected. Please take care when driving, and apply the right-hand rule, i.e. give way to traffic on your right.
We will update you as more information comes to hand.

This is your chance to celebrate your hood by sharing stories, photos or video. We really want to see and hear about the people in your neighbourhood. Portraits or videos of our neighbourhood champions, or the people that to you personify your community or ‘hood’. This year we’re doing it a little differently. To help focus (excuse the photography pun) we’ve chosen three themes.
1 – I Heart the History of My Hood
Everywhere we live has history, and stories. Do you know your hood’s history? Or maybe you know someone who has lived in the community for what seems like a million years, and know the place like that back of their hand. Was your hood the birth place of the women’s vote, or maybe site of the biggest lamington ever made way back in 53′ ….(Yes I know, random, but honestly we’re interesting in anything and everything)… By the way – this is also an awesome way to get our older ‘story tellers’ involved.
2 – I Heart Diversity in my Hood
New Zealand really has become a melting pot and that brings with it the rainbow of diversity of all kinds. Maybe you have the ‘united nations’ living on one street, maybe your neighbourhood pot luck dinners are better and more interesting than an international food fair could every dream of! We want to see and hear about it.
3 – I Heart My Healthy Hood
With our clean green image, amazing fresh foods, picture perfect outdoor environment, we know there are neighbourhoods out there that personify ‘health’. Is your neighbourhood or neighbour one of them? It could be through a neighbourhood walking group, or a ‘from garden to plate thanks to the shared neighbourhood community garden’ kind of thing. It might be a neighbourhood that has committed to getting the kids off screens and outside, or maybe its a whole street of cross fit power vegans ….. probably not … but you never know. What ever it is, we want to see and hear about it.
To enter go to our website and ‘share your story’
So get snapping and chatting. We have more information on I Heart My Hood available on facebook and on our website.

Two doors, no handles or hinges. Bought these to use as display stands, no longer needed. Had been treated for borer when I got them, I have seen no evidence of borer since. Paint chipping off - wood underneath is mostly in beautiful condition. Tall and narrow 580 x 1970 And 580 x 1960. … View moreTwo doors, no handles or hinges.

Paint chipping off - wood underneath is mostly in beautiful condition. Tall and narrow 580 x 1970 And 580 x 1960. Would be fantastic to break down and use for the wood. Pick up Prebbleton.

The public event will combine the Dedication of the Memorial and the 22 February Civic Commemoration Service.
The Memorial will be a place for people to reflect on the earthquakes that changed Canterbury and its communities forever, honouring those who lost their lives on 22 February 2011, acknowledging those who were seriously injured and everyone who helped in the rescue and recovery operation. Everyone is invited to share in remembering, and give thanks for the love and support that Canterbury and its communities received.
Join in the Canterbury Earthquake National Memorial Dedication and Civic Commemoration Event and live stream. 12 noon at the Memorial site in between Durham Street and the Montreal Street Bridge. Find out more.
I have quite a few old calendars with stunning scenery pictures and cute baby pictures (Anne Geddes) and other assorted ones. Probably enough to cover a wall with!
If you'd like them let me know.

I have collected this wood thinking I would build a playhouse, but it never happened. Free to whoever wants to pick it up. Pick up Prebbleton.
