Mail delays

Reporter Manawatū Standard

Hey Neighbours,
We're looking into mail delays in Manawatū and Tararua, particularly for rural residents.
Doctors practices are apparently having issues with mail arriving on time, and people have been getting important appointment notifications days or even weeks after the appointment date has already passed.
If you've had a similar issue with the post, our reporter Paul Mitchell would like to talk to you. You can email him at paul.mitchell@stuff.co.nz or call him on 027 405 2012.
If commenting here, please put NFP at the end if you wish for it not to be published

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

I have a ceramic lamp base that I’d like to be made in to a lamp. Anyone out there that can do the job?

Thank you!
