What do you think should be done about the erosion?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A car park is closed and sandbags are being brought in after more of Port Waikato’s Sunset Beach succumbed to erosion.

However, the local lifesaving club has a plan to at least slow the damage the township has been battling.

What do you think should be done about the erosion? Let us know in the comments. (Please add NFP if you don't want your comments used in print.)

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

Homeless in Hamilton

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

They are an ever-increasing presence on the streets of the city - but asking Hamilton’s homeless how they ended up where they are is not always a straight-forward exercise.

Many are wary, or perhaps intimidated about talking to a reporter and a photographer. Some were simply incapable of saying anything. Others wanted to say everything they possibly could.
