Gutter Weeds...

John Gillon from

I hope everyone is having a great New Year and are keeping safe during this Summer storm 🌧🌦
At least the gutter weeds will be enjoying the rain...
Seriously though, I've been monitoring them over the last couple of months, hoping that they would be dealt with in time for Christmas, but no such luck. 🌱🌱🌱🌱

On the North Shore, Ventia have the contract to kill weeds in the road corridor (gutters, roundabouts, traffic islands) using hot water or foam, but it doesn't seem to be getting done at all. This should be routinely done and not rely on the public complaining.
I haven't noticed the weeds like this in other parts of Auckland...

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to ā€œexuberanceā€? šŸ„

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re ā€œallergic to exuberance.ā€

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
