Poll: If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into a pest-free island?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Kiwis have always had a soft spot for our animal friends. With so many unique and quirky birds and marine species calling Aotearoa home, it’s only natural that we feel a deep drive to protect them 🐧🦭

These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.

If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into the project?
And maybe the bigger question — should we be looking at doing the same kind of thing for wildlife refuges on our main islands too?

Bruce from Whole 9 Yards

Mike and I have about 90 years experience between us. There is nothing we can't do around your home. Do you have sticking windows and doors, Aluminium and Timber, catches and handles broken or stuck? Garage Doors included.
Letterboxes a bit wobbly or broken, numbers missing, we still need to find you even if the Postie has gone AWOL.
Kitchen and Bathroom need some maintenance, doors water damaged, hinges not working properly, handles missing or broken. Bench tops tired or want to change the look? Gib installation, plastering and painting. Or a complete remodel.

Weather board replacement or tidying up, painting outside too.
Concrete paths and drive a bit cracked and broken, we can sort these problems also. oil stains an eyesore.
Decks, replace or repair, new stairs and balustrades including railings.
This is only a small list if our expertise, if it needs fixing or changing we have the ability.
Please text or call Mike 02041664786 or Bruce 0212121480 to organise a free visit to discuss your project.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
