Smart Rubish Bins
Congratulations to the Christchurch City Council. Smart bins automatically notify the Council as to the level of rubbish in these bins and yet it took five days and a visit to the council to get some action on the bin on Ernly Clark track after it was full to over flowing with a halo of rubbish surrounding it. Maybe the Council needs to hire some "Smart" employees to make this system work and justify the expenditure on this equipment.

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
