Spending Christmas alone? Want some free lunch, or to volunteer to help the homeless?
If you don't have plans for Christmas day, or you'll be spending the day alone, there's still plenty of room at the table for the Rotary Community Christmas Dinner, starting at 11:30 at the Beachside Conference Centre in Tāhunanui. Call ahead on the Christmas phone (022 514 3135) to save yourself a spot and let them know of any dietary needs.
If giving back is more your style, check out Giving Aroha in ANZAC park's facebook page to see if there are any volunteer roles still needing to be filled, or come along for the day with whatever koha you can afford.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
