Dog ownership has soared over the past five years, outstripping the growth in people in all the main cities apart from Auckland.
The country is home to more than 560,500 registered dogs – enough for about one in nine to be a proud owner. That's a pooch for roughly every third household.

Are you disgusted by the amount of unnecessary plastic packaging for products sold in supermarkets?
We've gotten rid of plastic bags from our supermarkets, but many shoppers reckon that should only be the beginning.
A national day of plastic protest has been organised, encouraging shoppers to unwrap and leave unnecessary plastic packaging behind at supermarkets.

Hi. We are looking for someone to provide personal cares for our 15yr old disabled daughter 4 days a week after school. We live in Mandeville and would need someone to meet her off the bus and provide assistance with personal cares. Our current carer is returning to full time study in February. … View moreHi.

I heard this week of an Auckland lawyer who allegedly quoted $5000 for letters of administration.
Possibly that included all the estate administration, not just getting the grant of administration from the High Court. The enquirer had, however, asked about 'just' letters of administration.
The lawyer allegedly told the enquirer that they (the family) legally could not do any of the work themselves once they had letters of administration, and that they had to use a lawyer. If that was actually said (and I emphasise 'if'), it was false.
The letters of administration should not cost more than $1500 even allowing for some language issues. The rest of the estate administration, for the small amount of property involved, should not be more than about $500, perhaps $1000 at the outside to allow for high office rents in Auckland (!).
I have also heard of some excessive figures quoted by South Island lawyers. (As well as a few who charge less than $1000 for probate or letters of administration.)
Please just check beforehand - whether it's for letters of administration (no will) or probate (a will, with at least one executor able and willing to act).

North Canterbury BMX Club president Aaron Clark says he could not give enough praise to the volunteers and earthwork contractors Ongrade for their "amazing work on the project", but a spate of wet weather had put them behind schedule.
"We were meant to have all the asphalt completed before Christmas, but there was so much rain in December. Then we had a timeframe of the 14th of January, but of course we've had more rain so it's looking like February now."
Does anyone have any Christmas lily bulbs they want to sell or get rid of or plants in the ground that they want removed.
