Hi neighbours,
I live up on Glenfield hill looking down on Birkdale and Beach haven area.
Now recently from time to time I have heard unbelievably load busts of music coming up from Birkdale and Beach haven
At the time I was thinking maybe it’s a sound crew testing their gear for the next AC/DC or Metallica gig
The busts of music would only ever last a few seconds at a time
“So anyway’s” last evening I was riding back from Takapuna on my motorbike when I was hit by a sonic boom of sound waves which nearly threw me off the bike
This noise came from a car in the lane beside me, I think this car started out as maybe a 2006 Mazda 3 sport hatch before it was highly modified
It looks like the rear seat and luggage area in the car has been removed to make way for a huge speaker system
I’m thinking the sound system can only be used for a few seconds at a time because of the huge drain on the cars battery
The car has been repainted in a nondescript colour similar to car in photo
Normally I’d note down the plate number of a car in question “but this time I was in shock”
I would love to know more about this car and driver if you see (and hear) it around

A gaggle of geese held up traffic on the northern motorway as they found themselves stuck on the road on Thursday afternoon.

The geese entered the motorway from a lake at the Rosedale Wastewater Treatment Plant. Feathers flew as the geese headed north, before they took the nearest exit – a berm near the Greville Rd off-ramp.

The geese were in a flap when they realised they were stuck between a concrete barrier and three lanes of Auckland’s busy holiday traffic.

While the geese appeared largely unruffled after the incident, motorists were said to have had goose bumps.

Wonderful live band music could be heard wafting across Little Charcoal Bay for many nearby residents to enjoy. Was it a birthday celebration? Anyway, it was most enjoyable and let's hope for a repeat next year! Someone had the inspiration, imagination and creative instinct to make it happen. Well done.
