Neighbours Day Roadshow - we were in you neighbourhood!
Catching up with our road trip posts! On Thursday we started in Taupo, at the Lake Taupo Hospice, check out their BBQ themed cookie invites! What an incredible idea, and a great bunch! We scooted up to Rotorua and heard all about the community led work going on Eastside Pest Free with Mary! And found some old school neighbours day flyers, and even badges from the original neighbours day!
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's
signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with
Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a
scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
