As a nation, we recently held a moving ANZAC Day commemoration. So now is a good time to reflect on how we treat our military personnel during and after their service. It speaks volumes about who we are as New Zealanders.
Let’s not leave those who serve our country behind.

Let’s not leave those who serve our country behind.
Can New Zealand do more to ensure that past, present and future service people - and their whānau – are recognised and supported?

Is taking your shoes off in someone's home the right and hygienic thing to do, or do you see being asked to remove your shoes as a total imposition?
It's one of many home dilemmas we come across on Homed, along with toilet paper over or under? cutlery up or down in the dishwasher? top sheet or no top sheet?, to name a few. Read more about the arguments for each and see how many people agree with you, here.
How many of you have heard of Arapawa Island? If you've got 10 friends or family (remember those social distancing rules), it's only $35 a night for this island escape.

The free outdoor Christmas concert, usually attracts tens of thousands of Kiwi families at Christchurch’s Hagley Park and the Auckland Domain.
“Given the immense amount of planning and work involved in Coca-Cola Christmas in the Park, we’ve had to make the sad decision to postpone until next year due to the current uncertainty of Covid-19 restrictions around large public events," Annette Chillingworth, from Coca-Cola NZ, says.
Organisers are now looking towards how they could make the 2021 event "bigger and more spectacular than ever before".
With Patrick out on a busy full day, the teens back to school.

The office work was being hampered by 2 dogs and a Burmese cat sulking because the house is too quiet and demanding attention so we (animals and i) have made the executive decision for a little netflix binge in front of our lovely warm heat pump.
If your feeling cold on this miserable Autumn day start thinking about a new heat pump and or better lighting. We can remove your current worn out heat pump and install a new one or do a totally new install. Best of all we take away the old ones, decommison and as always recycle.
LEDs lighting also warms and brightens. You get more light for less power and they last far longer. We also use local Christchurch made lights, which is even better.
Feel free to ring Patrick in 021525123, email elusionelectrical@gmail.com. You can also google Elusion Electrical to find our website.

The council is considering whether to continue the scheme designed to encourage post-quake residential development in the CBD or let it expire on June 30.
Developers are calling on the council to continue the scheme, especially if it wants to reach its target of increasing the central city population to 20,000 by 2028, but opponents say the rebate is propping up "wealthy developers" at the expense of ratepayers.
Read more here and tell us what you think of the scheme in the comments below.

Immerse yourself in our beautiful villages by taking a ‘walk through’ with our virtual tours. Stroll through the lovely gardens, explore the village amenities, and step into a beautiful independent apartment, serviced apartment or care room. You can navigate your way through each featured room or area of the village and really get a feel for the space. It’s a great way to obtain a more intricate view before you make a visit to the village.

During the Covid-19 restrictions, business owners have shown initiative, hard work and resilience to keep afloat.
But many have been hit hard.
Lack of clarity about just how heavy the toll of the restrictions have been on individual businesses and their ability to quickly rebound adds to the uncertainty of the national economic recovery.
Therefore, Prosper is launching a survey targeted at finding out the scale of Covid-19's impact.
You can take that survey right now – it will only take a few minutes.
