Severe Weather Warning!

Rachel Wansbone from Northpower

Parts of the North Island are expected to be hit by heavy rain and severe gales this week, as Cyclone Fili reaches New Zealand.

Be sure to keep mobile phones charged and ensure you have a car charger for your devices so you can keep in touch and keep informed. It also may pay to have a torch handy (they are safer than candles which can be a fire hazard) and have a gas bottle topped up for cooking.

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?
