Whether it’s organising a street clean up, helping a neighbour tidy up their property, putting together a working bee to paint a community mural, or installing a communal free kai pantry or library - there are so many ways to make our neighbourhoods that much more enjoyable for everyone.

We are open to leasing or buying but would want to trial the horse first to see that they are a good fit for each other. My daughter has 2 years' experience riding at Waikato Equestrian Centre and we have kept minis for 4 years. The ideal horse would be 15.2 - 16 hh and a gentle hack. The horse would be kept on our lifestyle block and would be well looked after. If you think your horse would fit the bill or you know anybody who might have one please call Connor on 021 706 727

Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.
The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.
They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.
What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Hi, does anyone know a builder that could do a wet floor bathroom please? I'm looking for someone who has experience in this area.

Today was very hot - our own dogs were lounging in front of a fan to keep them cool. Then 10 minutes later the same car went out onto the road again - and the poor little dog was still running behind the car. Even when the owner got out of the car to shut the gate he never let the poor little fellow back in the car at that stage and it was still running down the road behind the car. I really doubt the intelligence of the owner - if that little dog didn't have heatstroke it must have had torn and scratched paws. Do people not put their brain into gear before they act on their "bright ideas". I would like someone to tell me that the poor little fellow is okay and still alive.
please share around - we will need some help - I need helpers on the day, good condition toys and teddys and games - going to use as prizes and as a toy swop table. thanks Ruth
