The Team from North Shore, Rodney & West Auckland Police

Police are asking the public to keep an eye out for a unique art piece stolen during a burglary in west Auckland.

The Waitematā West Tactical Crime Unit is investigating a burglary in the Piha area on 6 December 2025.

Detective Sergeant Anna Freestone says scrap metal and tools were amongst items stolen, but also an valuable artwork called ‘Infinite Sea’.

“The round artwork is made up of glass, a mirror, led lighting and PVC,” she says.

“It’s a distinctive piece of art and we’re asking anyone in the public who has information on its whereabouts to get in touch.

It may be that this artwork has been offered up or advertised for sale, and we need to hear from you.”

If you have information to assist Police, you can provide information online now or call 105 using the reference number 251208/4801.

Information can also be provided anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.

has anyone got some pond/oxygen weed

Anna from Titirangi

I'm too late for tadpoles but am hoping someone might sell me some of their oxygen weed or any sort of aquatic pond plant??? Maybe tadpoles as well?

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

Earth being ‘pushed beyond its limits’ as energy imbalance reaches record high

Markus from Green Bay

www.theguardian.com...

The United Nations body confirmed 2015 to 2025 were the hottest 11 years ever measured, but a still bleaker message was that the rising temperature experienced by humans on the surface was only 1% of the faster-accumulating heat in the wider Earth system.

More than 90% of that excess is absorbed by the oceans, which experienced the highest heat content in history last year.
