Yesterday, Wednesday, I tripped over in a construction area in Albert St. It was not good, and I was taken away in an ambulance etc. I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the couple with the beautiful 1yr old boy, who stood with me for so long as I lay on the ground in pain and feeling ill. … View moreYesterday, Wednesday, I tripped over in a construction area in Albert St. It was not good, and I was taken away in an ambulance etc. I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the couple with the beautiful 1yr old boy, who stood with me for so long as I lay on the ground in pain and feeling ill. They were calm and supportive and just very kind.
You are most appreciated, I wish I'd been in a state to ask your names.
Also, the construction workers who stayed with me til the ambulance came...cheers for that, nice to not be alone.
Thank you soo much,
Lisa

Isn't it a head-scratcher? No wonder folks end up losing their licenses from the drink-driving escapades and continue down a road leading to criminal records – talk about a far worse outcome!

Hi to all,
Kindly please if you have pitbulls as pet please keep them in your property or on leash at all times. There was an aggressive Pitbull that wandered into my area at 415pm and it was snarling and growling at my door.

Kindly please if you have pitbulls as pet please keep them in your property or on leash at all times. There was an aggressive Pitbull that wandered into my area at 415pm and it was snarling and growling at my door.
Got my pots and pans and start clanging to get it to get out of my backyard and all. 😡😡😡
If you know your Pitbull is aggressive leash em up and not let it stray out. When something happens and your fave pet gets taken away, do not blame it on anyone but you 🤦♂️
Eke Panuku handed over responsibility to Project Manager Bill Jackson, for 254 Ponsonby Road after a site inspection this morning Finally the site is no longer a liquor outlet and the new civic space is now one step closer to being realised.
BRAVO!

"I’m a single working mum and life is a juggle! However James and Amy are always offering to help when needed. They are just the type of couple that don't wait to be asked for help. Amy is forever helping to look after my dog when I’m at work or helping to get my kids to after school activities. James will come over and help me put up the kids temporary pool, do my lawn edges or take runs to the tip when I’m having a clear out. Always with a smile when I know they are busy parents themselves.
In addition to the many times they've helped me out personally, in the recent flooding in the Forrest Hill area, it was Amy that rang around her network and rallied a number of our families (and kids) to come and help affected neighbours to clear out their flooded homes and generally clean up once the waters had died down. I know she helped man a support area in the local community down in Milford shopping centre which provides support and goods to families hit hard. She's also the Chair of the Forrest Hill Primary School - she's just an all-around good sort who is very community-minded. James works for the Police and I know he's been up to the local school more than once to help educate our kids about what the police do and how to stay safe.
James and Amy are very humble, but I do really think they are some of the great unsung heroes that make our north shore community so special. I feel very blessed they are part of my adopted whānau!"
