Cool as way to celebrate summer

Porirua City Council

It’s well and truly summer now, so a cool drink could be top of the list if you’re out and about.

For the second year, the Cool As Challenge will take place in Porirua, with each participating café creating their own unique drink that will be judged by a public vote.

Nineteen venues in Porirua will be taking part in the challenge from 16 February to 3 March, with more than 30 signature summer drinks will be available across Porirua and Lower Hutt. Our community is encouraged to get out and support local businesses that have created a unique thirst-quencher.

Go to coolaschallenge.nz for a map and downloadable drink list.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
