Poem: "Drought"

Christopher Neighbourly Lead from Papatoetoe

Before the virus came to town
To make us stop and look around
Rain was scarce
Then scarcer still
Dams did not fill
Rain did not fall
Rain did not fall
Dams did not fill
The virus held sway
It got in the way
Of every good thought but kindness
Save water! Said weekly
Save water! Said weakly
Save water! We all shout.
So why should we heed
The advice of Raveen Jaduram
Who weekly said weakly
“We’re having a drought...”

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?
