Finding a rental
Hi Neighbours
Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying this balmy Autumn. Our lovely flat has been living on Abel Smith St for the past 4 years and unfortunately the winds of change are coming, we've been informed of a possible sale by our landlord and may well have to find new accommodation. We are two couples and a single, looking for a 3 bedroom house in the sort of general vicinity of Aro/Northland/Kelburn (although we are very easy ultimately and cant be picky). We are all hardworking creative types, with many a project on the go. Ideally we'd like a place to make our own and fill with love. And a landlord who wants to feel like their property is in good hands and they are providing a real home environment to provide us with the energy and stability we all want so that we can pursue our art, music and writing. I am aware of the current rental climate and understand that its a long shot, but here I am, attempting to circumvent the negative feelings surrounding the property market to appeal directly to you. Ask and ye shall receive and I am asking. Neighbours, please, do us a solid, if you know of anyone at all or a house that might fit the bill then please let me know. If you felt like copying this post to reach beautiful Wellingtonians further afield, that would be greatly appreciated. We would love to remove the stress of finding a house from our life and carry on making Wellington a better place to live with our love and presence. My number is 0220800645 or danielwb14@gmail.com works too. Much Love from Daniel, Felix, Mattea, Ellen & Andrew
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
