TRAIN STAFF CONVERGING ON WALLACEVILLE
So it is correct, Kiwi Rail are going to be a major tenant of the Blue Mountains Campus in Wallaceville in 14 months.
More than 120 control team staff will move into the campus and occupy 4000 square metres of the main structure (Buddle Building) including a newly built control room. So Upper Hutt will take control of the region's railway systems!
The campus is likely to be occupied overall by over 500 people which is good news for Upper Hutt with job opportunities and a boost for retailers.
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?

HAS CNN GOT IT RIGHT
Set the scene:
CNN today showed a preview of a movie about reforming Pope Francis and the clips ended with a riled up Pope raising his voice to a person - maybe a Bishop or Cardinal - inside the Vatican in Rome.
Immediately after this came on screen the headline: SINNER LEADS ITALY TO WIN IN DAVIS CUP.
Jannik Sinner is a member of the Italian tennis team.
Gave me a laugh.
