Mother's Day
Hi neighbours,
It's Mother's Day on Sunday.
The event was founded by Philadelphia resident Anna Jarvis whose mother had organised women's groups to promote friendship and help.
On May 12, 1907, Jarvis held a memorial service at her late mother's church in Grafton, West Virginia and five years later, nearly every state was observing the day.
Jarvis started Mother's Day to honour the sacrifices women made for their children after her own mum died in 1905.
In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson signed a measure recognising the second Sunday in May as the official day.
How are you planning to spend the day?
Have you been separated from your mother by Covid-19 travel restrictions? If so, how will you commemorate her?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Careful what you chew!
A recent case , at CM Dental on Lincoln Road,
The patient tragically fractured their upper premolar chewing. yes that's possible so don't crunch bones, beer bottles etc. with your teeth!!! Be careful with the holiday fare and New Year Festive Turkey Drumsticks on the barbecue.
We saved this one sometimes we can't
We first isolated the tooth from his mouth and the salivary bacteria with a temporary filling, applied a rubber dam and root filled the tooth.
We then preserving as much tooth tissue as possible prepared the tooth for a crown and later cemented this in place giving a beautiful cosmetic result. cmdental.co.nz...
