Did you spot the pod of dolphins on the South Coast?

Sarah Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

A pod of about 50 dolphins were cruising between Princess Bay and Houghton Bay early this week when a couple of them got stranded in the shallows.

Luckily, a trio of locals scrambled down the steep cliffs to rescue the pair of dolphins from a small alcove in Houghton Bay.

Did you see the dolphins or witness the rescue? Have you spotted dolphins in this kind of strife before? Where is the best place in the capital to spot visiting dolphins or whales?
To read more and watch a video of the rescue, click here.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
