It’s hard to put your finger on why Ryman care centres just feel different. Perhaps it’s our constant drive to improve through innovations such as our myRyman Care app and Delicious menu, or perhaps it’s the genuine warmth of the care we provide.

Our 'Experience the Care Difference’ guide paints a picture of the care, kindness and comfort that our residents experience every day. It offers a comprehensive guide to rest home, hospital and specialist dementia care, as well as our serviced apartment options. So, for the inside knowledge into what makes a Ryman care centre different, check out our guide.
Hullo Neighbourly folk, I thought you might be interested in the recent poll on having a holiday on your birthday.
The results were a surprise. Who would have thought that nearly 70 per cent of you do not want to get a paid day of leave on your birthday.

Honestly can't remember if I saw this guy's post on Neighbourly or Facebook, so I'm reaching out to both. I thought I'd saved his post but alas, not so. Is anyone able to help? (I think he's an Upper Hutt guy).
UPDATE: PIPER FOUND! Thank you everyone, I have found a piper.

A delightful Walnut Cabinet ideal for a drinks cabinet, but still very versatile. I will supply dimensions once back at the house as it is part of a deceased estate.

Now that summer's finally here and the holidays are just around the corner for many, we'd love to hear about your favourite summer holiday memories. Has there been a trip that you continue to think about years later? Where did you go, with who and what did you get up to? What made it such a stand-out experience? As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.
The latest trend???
Roadway Graffiti!
What a mess. Seems to self there is a lot of dangerous 'skidding / burnouts' occurring recently. Roadside berms and green spaces are also getting churned up.
Does the engine noise of this activity wake people up?
Any comments?

When Clifford Hallett blows out the candles on his cake in a couple of weeks, he'll likely wish for an extra leave day to celebrate.
Hallett has launched a petition to Parliament requesting it pass legislation to give all employees that right.
Tell us what you think.
Please put NFP if you do not want your comments used by STUFF.
