MONTHLY CAR BOOT SALE AND LOW COST CAFE COMING SOON!
The popular Monthly Car Boot Sales will continue (even though our Monthly Garage Sales have ended, after thirty years!) on the first Saturday every month, starting SATURDAY FEBRUARY 1st at Upper Hutt Baptist Church's Community Centre, corner Fergusson Drive and Milton Street - very visible location! Site fees $15 - phone 528-3454 to reserve a site. There might be an option of an indoor space when weather is inclement with table provided at a slightly higher cost - watch this space!
A low cost cafe will be open inside the Community Centre from 9am, serving percolated coffee or a pot of tea and a piece of cake for $4 - good value! We might even have live music playing in the background. Come and try it out and let us know what you think.
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?

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
