Got an opinion on fireworks? Share it with us

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Is it time to ban the private sale of fireworks in favour of public displays only? Or is Guy Fawkes just a bit of flammable fun?

Would you like to see tighter restrictions on fireworks or are you a sparkler fiend who sees no problem with celebrating safely at home?

We want to know… View more

New Zealanders are embracing the reusable bag ahead of a plastic bag ban, but they could be carrying something else around – bacteria.

ACT leader David Seymour says 20 people could die each year using reusable bags.

"It's coming up to summer and people will be in a hot car with their chicken in a canvas bag ... and suddenly, you've got a real serious case for poor food hygiene."

Food safety expert Steve Flint said it was a valid concern. Read more here

A Dunedin man is to appear in court after allegedly stealing fuel from a farmer's fuel tank.

The incident unfolded at Momona, near the city's airport on Friday afternoon, Acting inspector Craig Dinnissen said.

The farmer noticed a ute on his property, and then later confronted the man who was filling the vehicle's fuel tank.

The man had also taken some of the farmer's tools.

The 26-year-old man was charged with burglary.

Police were also investigating the theft of plumber's tools from a vehicle parked on Willis St.

The passenger side window was smashed to gain access, Dinnissen said.

It was unclear whether the theft was opportunistic or the work of mobile offenders.

Dunedin commuters have been warned to expect the hunt for free, all-day parking to become increasingly difficult in the city centre.

The comment by Dunedin City Council transport group manager Richard Saunders came as councillors at yesterday's full council meeting considered the latest round of proposed parking changes in the city.

The proposal, to be released for public consultation, would result in about 150 car parks around Dunedin Hospital, Otago Museum, the University of Otago and in Vogel St switched from free to $1 or $2-an-hour metered parks.

With her hand stuck in a letterbox on a deserted street, a Dunedin woman feared her arm would be amputated.

The health professional, who declined to be named because of "sheer embarrassment", said the incident unfolded at her Loyalty St home about 10am on Thursday.

Rather than use her key to open her new metal letterbox, she "thought I could put my hand in and grab the mail out" - but it got stuck.

Hey neighbours!
My family and I are currently living in a motel (have done for 3 1/2 months) through transitional housing. As you can imagine we are desperate to get out.
My partner and I have 3 girls 5, 3 and 2 plus one small shitzu (who cannot stay with us while in the motel 🙁) , we would prefer to have some sort of parking but it isn't essential. The girls attend kindy and school in the south end of dunedin so not wanting to move to far away, we are considering any of the flat suburbs out this way (as I don't drive so want to be in walking distance of the girls destinations ) e.g caversham,south dunedin, st Kilda, st clair, forbury, andersons bay, Musselburgh, tainui somewhere around these areas. We are struggling with property managers as they can't see past a credit rating (😣)so would prefer a private landlord. We are very reliable and friendly people who can provide plenty of refernces to a lovely landlord who is willing to give us a chance and get us out of this motel! Feel free to share this around.
I can send Contact details through private message also!
Thank you everyone
