So I merged onto NW motorway from Waterview heading east, it was usual observation of nearly every vehicle mobilised that morning up each others business, so i proceeded to hang back to create a sizeable gap which i know can annoy others. But then it seemed everyone else around did same in unison and then suddenly the unthinkable happened, the motorway opened right up and everyone was suddenly moving at 80kms with a good gap had between each vehicle, and the sun rose and I saw that miracle folks. I got to Remuera from Blockhouse in 25 mins?! Kia Ora Westies....

We're planting native trees at Wenderholm! Wenderholm holds a special place in Auckland’s history as its first Regional Park—and one of the most picturesque.

Native planting at this site not only enhances a beautiful recreation site for residents of Tāmaki Makaurau, but also provides erosion control, helping prevent runoff into the harbour, and associated significant soil and water quality benefits.

In 1953, Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip spent a day picnicking at Wenderholm — so come and help plant native trees for the Jubilee at this special site.

Kia ora neighbours, tenants had to move out of their Kelston rental after their landlord failed to fix sewerage problems for months.

The tenants took their landlord Mauri Ora Limited to the tenancy tribunal and said there were times they’d flush the toilet and faeces and toilet paper would come out the other side of the house.

In August 2021, the tenants moved into the rental and noticed sewage was coming out of the trap by the front door for the first month they lived there.

They told Mauri Ora Ltd about it and a plumber was sent and put tape over the trap. The tenants said this made sewage leak out of a trap on the other side of the house instead.
