Time of your life (if you want it to be)
Hi there. I am a lady in my late 60s living in Foxton, who enjoys dancing and listening to modern international pop music. So if you know who Olivia Rodrigo, Dua Lipa, L.A.B, Teeks, Stan Walker or BTS are, or what Beautiful Mistakes, Good 4 u or Butter songs are, then you’re into my music. I am asking if there are any others who are interested in joining me in my garage for sessions of listening and dancing to music, once a week. I already have some people interested but want more to enjoy this time. This is not about weight loss, unless you want it to be. This is not about fitness, unless you want it to be. It’s about enjoying the moment with others who have the same interests in music or dancing or even other interests. The session could be during the day but if I get enough interest, I will see about having a night session for those who can’t make day sessions. I will be holding sessions separately for those either vaccinated or unvaccinated. The point of these sessions is so that everyone can enjoy music. I will be restarting sessions mid February. Please contact me on 0273616633 if you’re interested.
Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

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?
