Two young women cool off in the Stewart Fountain in central Christchurch in February 1973.
The fountain was later replaced and was a favourite spot for young people until the replacement was also demolished - despite protests that resulted in 13 arrests. Read more here.

Christchurch’s vigilante councillor Phil Mauger has been issued with a formal warning for digging an unauthorised trench used to sort a 10-year post-quake flooding problem.
The council has this week started work to lift the footpath on Pages Rd out of the typical flood levels, saying it had been planned since mid-July, before the trench was dug.
Does Mauger deserve to be punished? Give us your thoughts below.

My name is Jake, I'm The Press newspaper's newly appointed Neighbourly reporter for Canterbury and the South Island. I've worked in Stuff's Christchurch newsroom for ten months now where I previously covered breaking news. Neighbourly is growing as a popular tool to access local news and keep in touch with those around us, which we often miss with national media outlets. I'm here to bring you the news closest to you in a role which will work similarly to a community newspaper reporter.
If you have any stories or interesting things happening in your suburb or area, please get in touch!
If you see news posted in your area, please get involved and reply with your comments/thoughts on the issues at hand. I'm all for robust discussion and a bit of banter never went a miss.
Thanks in advance and I look forward to chatting with you all!

We have high standards and our bakers do too, which is why there are multiple quality checks in place at the bakery and only the best looking buns make the cut.
We use less than a teaspoon of sugar in each of the buns which gives them the colour and texture that makes them perfect for burgers.

A recent episode of Grand Designs UK, about a Paralympian whose marriage broke up during the build of his dream home, got us thinking. What are the best design features/products for a home if you are not fully abled? We'd like to hear from people who have adjusted their homes in some way to make life with a disability easier.
