Poll: Would you pay to use your neighbours' swimming pool?

The Team Reporter from Stuff

A new app lets people hire their private pools by the hour, but it hasn't come to New Zealand - yet.

When a stack of rusty, dust-covered film cans was deposited with audiovisual archive, Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision by the family of freelance filmmaker Thomas H Whetton, it was a surprise to find much of the more than 80-year-old film inside those cans was in great condition. Amongst the 70+ cans the Archive’s preservation team discovered never-before-seen footage of the immediate aftermath of the 1931 Napier earthquake. This presentation takes you through the meticulous work Ngā Taonga did (and are still doing) to rescue that footage and the other taonga in the Whetton collection. The collection of Thomas Henry Whetton dating from the 1920s and 1930s is showcased in Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision’s Rust + Restoration | He Waikura He Whakauka exhibition currently on in the Te Puna Foundation Gallery at the National Library.

Hello neighbors, my name is Maximus. I recently got a new headset from my parents that I don’t need as I have just got another new one.

The one I would like to sell is brand new and unopened, has a 2 year warranty and retails at 160-170 depending on retailer so buying it at 120 or near offer would be a bargain.

If you have any questions or queries please feel free to ask.

Thank you Maximus W

Hi Neighbors
I have a very good condition Mercedes S550. This is similar to the V8 E class with extra luxury features. It has a 382 hp V8 engine but still gives reasonable economy.

I have a retail valuation of $20,450 but selling for $11,000.

The Matsuri Gala is all ready to go tomorrow (11am to 2pm) at Crofton Downs Primary School. The forecast isn't looking great, however we're definitely going ahead. The weather won't beat us!

We're moving the fun around so it's indoors, or under shelter...everyone can still play heaps of games, eat delicious food, buy beautiful crafts and plants, find treasures in our book and toy rooms, enjoy local entertainment etc etc.

Sounds like a perfect outing on a (possibly) rainy day, and you don't have to worry about sunscreen 🤣
Can't wait to see you there!
