Hi Neighbours,

Have you heard the news? A baby pygmy marmoset monkey that weighs less than an AA battery is the newest arrival at Nelson's Natureland.

Peru and Inti are the proud parents of the baby who arrived on January 9. Hawken said Inti was a first-time mum and the first 48-hours for a newborn were often touch and go.

Will you be going to congratulate the new parents? The tiny baby monkey, whose weight is estimated between 16 to 20 grams, could be difficult to spot while clinging to one of its parents.

Hi neighbours,

Many people setting up paddling pools for their children this summer will be breaking the law - are you one of them?

Any pool, fixed or portable, deeper than 400mm is now subject to safety provisions under the Building Act, meaning there a quite a few rules you probably aren't even aware of.

For example, do you have a 1.2-metre fixed childproof fence with a self-closing gate opening outwards?

What are your thoughts on paddling pool safety? If faced with an inspection, would your pool set-up pass? Do you think all these rules are essential? What are your tips for setting up a paddling pool safely?
