Rosa Scaffidi, Lunchtime Concert, Wednesday 23 October, 12.15pm

Chris from Lynmouth - Moturoa

The penultimate lunchtime concert for this year, at the Methodist Centre features Taranaki's fabulous concert pianist, Rosa Scaffidi. She will play Schubert's "Wanderer Fantasie", his most monumental and challenging work for piano - be prepared for some fireworks! In contrast for desert she will play Percy Grainger's "Irish Tune from County Derry", a special arrangement by Grainger.
She will also have a new CD release soon, Stravinsky's Rite of Spring for two pianos, with Dr. Tony Gould, recorded in Melbourne and produced by Move Records. Something to also look forward to. Koha for a local charity appreciated.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
