Not so long ago, we asked you to complete our FreshChoice Health & Beauty Survey 2017. Over 2600 people told us their beauty, health and hygiene secrets and we were AMAZED with the results!

- Almost 50% of us are eating fast food a minimum of once a month!
- Did you know that 1 in 10 of us are getting less than 5 hours sleep each night?
- The most common kiwi stress relief is to exercise! Coming in at a close second was .. of course .. FOOD!

Want to see what else we found out? Like how frequently we are washing our hands...?!

Who deserves a mention?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

WANTED: A Porirua grandfather and former mechanic who rescued a couple of Aucklanders whose car broke down between Taupo and Rotorua in February.

A friendly couple from Nelson who had a dodgy Daewoo station wagon are eager to thank him.

WANTED: A Porirua grandfather and former mechanic who rescued a couple of Aucklanders whose car broke down between Taupo and Rotorua in February.

A friendly couple from Nelson who had a dodgy Daewoo station wagon are eager to thank him.

And so do we. This good sort has inspired a new series of articles highlighting those who do a lot of good but often go unmentioned.

We can't call it the Good Sort series because, well, that's already used by TV1 so instead we will call it Our People.

We have a few potential ideas already, but what we are really after is recommendations from you about who you think deserves a mention.

It could be someone you know who does something kind, something thoughtful, anything for the sake of helping someone else.

We will follow it up and, if they're keen, work on an article for Our People that might inspire another just like that Porirua grandfather.

Mess on James Cook Drive

Marg from Whitby

As at noon today, the mess on James Cook Drive is all gone. It is sad to see the quite pleasant James Cook Drive ghetto-ized by rubbish that just lies there for months without people getting active. Anyway, thanks for the sunshine, the one nice toot and the free weight-bearing exercise.
