Police Pay Parade and Awards Ceremony

Liu Chen Reporter from Eastern Courier

Counties Manukau Police held their annual and traditional Pay Parade this morning, when officers and staff marched through the streets of Howick Village, before holding their awards ceremony in Howick RSA. It's the first time in six years that the parade has been held in Howick and many locals, including enthusiastic students of Howick Intermediate School, lined Picton Street to applaud the men and women in blue.

Happy Tuesday neighbours, here's a riddle to get your mind going.

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I am beautiful, up in the sky.
I am magical, yet I cannot fly.
To some I bring luck, and to some, I bring riches.
The boy at my end does whatever he wishes.
What am I?

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
