This week's Nice Neighbours are Matt, Amelie and Jireh Rudich of Papakura. They were nominated by Yolanda Schuller.

On Yolanda's birthday, her husband had a major heart attack. They had an entire day planned, but then life threw a spanner into the works.

Yolanda asked Amelie to feed her cat, Koda, but Amelie's family went over and above. They cooked dinners two nights in a row and sent yummy treats during the tough time.

“I was really touched by their love, prayers and generosity. They are amazing. I couldn’t wish for better neighbours,” said Yolanda.

Nominate a Nice Neighbour you know, and they could be recognized on Stuff (and you both win a prize!).

Bubbling Drain

Colin from Tawa

This drain in Oxford Street, Tawa, has been bubbling away for WEEKS. It has been reported to the WCC and when you ring WCC to find out if they are ever going to do something you get, and I quote, this answer "It's on the list"

The WCC don't do the work in a case like this, they contract it out. So when you have found out the job number you have to contact the sub contractor. Surely if the sub contactor is overworked then employ more sub contractors.....if there ARE any.
