Hi Neighbours :)
I am urgently seeking a bed - whether it's single, double, queen, king, bunk - WHATEVER!
We unexpectedly have a young guest coming to live with us & need a bed for them. I can arrange to pick up or can contribute petrol for anyone able to drop off
Please help?
Neighbours' Day Aotearoa is happening on 25 & 26 March. It's a great chance to involve your neighbours in your emergency plan - work out who can help you and who might need your help. www.happens.nz...

That’s the message from Wellington Police as the city prepares to welcome thousands of music lovers for the Homegrown festival this weekend.
“Homegrown is a big event for the capital. We want to keep the city safe and vibrant for all those attending the event as well as those who are simply enjoying the city,” says Wellington’s acting Prevention Manager Inspector Clint Walker.
“If you’re going to be drinking, know your limits. Take care of yourself and look out for your mates. This includes planning for a long day, staying hydrated and eating during the day/night.
“Gross intoxication can and does ruin a lot of good nights – the event is a great thing for music and Wellington, don’t ruin your experience by drinking excessively and missing the Kiwi artists on the line-up.”
Festival-goers are also reminded of Wellington’s 24/7 public liquor ban in the city centre.
It is an offence to drink and possess alcohol in the defined public place liquor-free zone. This includes drinking alcohol in vehicles that may be parked in the liquor-free zone.
“The rules of the ban still apply this weekend and we will be actively enforcing them,” says Inspector Walker.
“Don’t be surprised to be issued an alcohol infringement notice for breaching the liquor ban if you decide to consume alcohol outside of the designated sites or bars in the city.”
Wellington’s liquor-free zone includes Wellington Central area, Oriental Bay, Mount Victoria lookout, Aro Valley, Central Park, Mount Cook and Newtown.
More details can be found on Wellington City Council’s website.(one way to key in the ‘check yourself’ campaign
