Hello, dearest riddle fiends 😈

You might have noticed we've been doing a few different things recently on The Neighbourly Ridder...

Are you a fan of the changes, or liked the way it was last time?
Is keeping the comments open longer so people can enjoy them more going well, or did you like it when we had a daily riddle?
Are you liking the new style of riddles? Would you like to keep them going, have more, or get rid of them?

Let us know your thoughts in the comments below 👀
Your ideas could help shape the next chapter of our riddles! 🧩

This highly entertaining, award-winning British comedy, first staged in 2018, has only recently been released for non-professional performance, after wowing audiences in the UK and Australia.

Have you heard your parents or grandparents talk about ‘in my day...’ and you’ve thought how wonderful it must have been to live in that era? Home, I’m Darling is a play about taking the opportunity to step aside from the millennium life and swap it for a 1950s life before McDonald’s, pizza deliveries and supermarkets. What could possibly go wrong?

It's tax return time. Scammers are impersonating Inland Revenue (IR) - and even the Police to steal personal information and money.

They may contact you by email, text, or phone, claiming:
🔹 You're owed a tax refund and must provide your bank details to receive it.
🔹 You owe tax and need to pay immediately to avoid legal trouble.

How to stay safe:
✅ Don’t click on links in emails or texts - log in to your myIR account directly.
✅ Check the sender - official IRD emails always end in @ird.govt.nz.
✅ Be cautious with texts - IRD only sends messages from four-digit codes, not
regular phone numbers.
