Tararu Flood Protection fundraising garage sales

Carolyn from Thames

A reminder that Tararu Flood Protection's fundraising combined garage sales continue tomorrow at 110 and 120 Wilson Street Thames, from 8am to noon. We have some great stuff left, including skirts, jackets and shoes to complete your SteamPunk the Thames outfit. Thanks to the many people who braved the bleak weather this morning, we are well on our way to completing our target to put down anti-erosion matting and reinstate the rocks along the seawall. All proceeds from the garage sales will go towards this target. Join us tomorrow for clothes, plants, small appliances, books, pictures, china and glasses and more. Sausage sizzle while stocks last at 110 Wilson Street.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

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?
