My New Life Starts Today!

Mornay from Shelly Park

Today, I moved into a new house, sharing with the main tenants. The house is really nice & that includes the main tenants. The house is also in a nice neighborhood.
I really wanna say Thank You from the bottom of my heart for all the support from the caring people, that I’ve received after the house-fire in 20 Somerville Road, in which I was a tenant/flatmate.
A huge Thank You to Garry Thompson & his family, for putting me up in their lovely home, for a couple of days, helped me out with clothing, towels & bags, and also washed & dried my fire-smelling clothes.
Thanks so much to my handful of friends who were trying to find me permanent accommodation, and a huge Thank You to one particular person, who sourced & found me my permanent accommodation. You’re a very special Angel that was sent, and you know who you are. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
A special Thank You to the Salvation Army in Howick, who was a tremendous help, and a huge Thank You to Steve from the Salvation Army Shop in Howick, who moved mountains to be able to store my bed, until I moved into permanent accommodation.
Also, many thanks to WINZ Highland Park, who helped me out with temporary accommodation.
If there’s anyone who I forgot to mention, many many Thanks to you too.
Cheers & Goodnight to everyone!

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?
