Thank you for using Neighbourly
To all those who have replied to my original post, thank you for your kind words and yes I know it would be a good thing to have an alarm and tracker but who would have thought any one would steal it for a third time especially as they cleaned everything out of it the first two times.

I suspect that we aren't going to see it again as someone most probably wanted it for some nefarious reason and needed to use it to move something illegal or something that they have pinched.
I might as well take the opportunity to say that If you are the person who has taken my vehicles, and I am sure that thieves are part of the neighbourly community and may well read this, then just do what what you have to do with the truck and trailer, and then when you have finished, drop it off somewhere that it can be found easily, so that I can get back to work.
And if it's not too much trouble, don't bugger around, get on with it.

Cell phone coverage in the area of Battle Hill is patchy which in turn means coverage for Eftpos machines can be a problem. In the past, cash has proved to be the most reliable means for transactions. There will be a limited Eftpos facility on the day supplying cash.
The proceeds from the day will support Wellington Free Ambulance and local Porirua Community Charities.
Where: Greater Wellington’s Battle Hill Farm Forest Park, 608 Paekakariki Hill Road, Porirua, Wellington
Admission: Gold coin donation
I know spoonbills have featured before but this picture, by Louise Thomas, is just too good not to use. She took it at at Pauatahanui.

We love how creative some people are with their plant giving! This is for goodie bags for a 7 year olds party but we reckon you could borrow this wonderful idea for the Neighbours Day Aotearoa Great Plant Swap!

Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a nasty, rusty surprise.
I'm certain I've seen something like this here in Aotearoa-NZ, but can't for the life of me recall where. It was in the back of the medicine cupboard. Let us know if you've seen, had - or have - one in your home.
Two children, and their heroic rescuer, were moments away from drowning, after being dragged out to sea in a notorious rip at Porirua's Tītahi Bay.

After recognising the children were being “sucked out”, unable to repel the rip’s overwhelming strength, Mark McAdams didn't hesitate to "strip down" to his underwear and brave the treacherous waters to save the siblings, thought to be aged around 7 and 9, on Monday afternoon.
“My mission was to save the kids, but once I got a hold of them, I knew I was in trouble as well. If two surfers weren’t close by to call over, we were gone. All three of us were gone,” McAdams said.
The Porirua City Council will discuss whether a flotation device can be installed at the north end of Tītahi Bay, following the near-drowning.
“We recognise the near-drowning at Tītahi Bay this week was not what we want to see at a beach in Porirua, and we will be talking to the right people about how it can be made safer for swimmers and other users,” a council spokesman said.
