Piece by piece, bucket by bucket, these dedicated individuals worked long hours to retrieve bits of glass on hands and knees from among burnt blackberry, gorse and broom bushes.
Thanks – to all our dedicated volunteers (you know who you are). A special shout out to Riccarton High School Eco-Group, the Air New Zealand Green Team, Summit Road Society members, Kathmandu, and the Student Volunteer Army.
This lovely little cat visits us daily. She used to visit, then stopped coming for a few months, then reappeared wearing a collar. We are happy for her to visit but would like to know where she comes from.
The photo is not very clear because black cats just aren't photogenic.

In that article, reference was made to Street 10. There were some inaccuracies in that article about Street 10 which we regret.
Street 10 was not merely an "inner city day pad ... [for] the men to clean up and relax over coffee," and we apologise for any inference that it was.
Street 10 was based in Liverpool Street, not Manchester St as stated. It did not close because of the 2011 earthquake, although the building was destroyed.
Street 10 closed because, despite running a mobile support service for a year following the February 2011 earthquake where the team went around public parks giving out drinks, food, blankets, reassurance and information about what services were still operating, the trust couldn't compete with all the businesses previously in the CBD for a new building and could not get the funding needed to pay a higher rent.
The day centre proposed by the Collective for the Homeless does not replicate what was provided by Street 10, which was overseen by the Inner City Interagency Trust. While that comparison was drawn by key backer, Brenda Lowe-Johnson, there are key differences, including the inclusion of women, the community development model of practice in which Street 10 was based, the representation of people at every level of the organisation including the Trust Board and the multiple services Street 10 provided based on the self identified needs of people without safe and secure accommodation.
The article in question also quoted Ms Mora, despite the fact that the reporter had not recently spoken to her. The comments were misquoted from a story written some years ago and for this we unreservedly apologise.

The copper network is owned and managed by Chorus. Enable are installing the fibre in the street and into the residential properties. My house is 4 years old and has been prepared for a future fibre install. But unfortunately the "lead in pipe" (that is the home owners responsibility according to the Chorus website) that runs from the boundary to the side of my house has a copper cable owned by Chorus running through it.
Enable will not use that lead in pipe because they say it is owned by Chorus. Enable want to run the fibre a long the fence, cut a slot in the footpath, and mount another box (ETP) on the side of the house. My response to that was NO! Why can't you use the existing lead in pipe and ETP...? Enable continue to say they can't it belongs to Chorus.
Spark say the existing lead in pipe can be used but first I have to prove that I paid to have it installed. Then Chorus can be asked to remove the copper cable and Enable can use it for the fibre install.
This is just a ridiculous situation. Using what is already there will save time, money and I wont have an extra box attached to the side of the house 3mtrs away from the original box that will end up being a useless decoration. Why can't these companies work for the interests of their customers.
Christchurch is in the midst of a cafe boom, with a glut of new coffee shops vying for the caffeine connoisseur's coin. Where's your favourite place to grab a cup of joe?
