On Sunday 9th September at approx. 2pm I was sitting stationary at the roundabout on New Brighton Road turning left into Bassett Street when I was hit from behind. The person I was hit by did stop, but unfortunately gave me a bogus number. I'm now left to cover the excess unless anyone else saw this and can help. There were several other vehicles at the time that witnessed this. I was driving a dark gunmetal Grey Holden and the car in question was a white Toyota Wish. If Anyone remembers seeing this and can help it would be greatly received. Many Thanks

Dumped Car

Hi neighbours,

Plastic supermarket bags and Tetra Pak cartons will no longer be accepted in Christchurch's kerbside recycling bin. The City Council has said it is not in a position to accept the items in the yellow bins. Click here to read more about this.

These items now have to go in the red rubbish bin, however plastic bags can be dropped off at special recycling bins at supermarkets. Visit ccc.govt.nz for a full list of what can be recycled.

What are your thoughts on this? What do you think needs to be done to fix our landfill-problem? Let us know your thoughts in the replies below!
