Pet tags
Hello, my dear neighbors.
There is a creative 13-year-old boy named Barry. He pursues his dream of becoming a laser engraver in his spare time.
His first project was to create a custom tag for a friend’s pet. Barry designed a cute pattern, engraving the pet’s name on the front and a phone number on the back to prevent the pet from getting lost. The finished tag was both beautiful and practical, and the friend’s dog seemed very pleased with it.
As time went by, Barry’s skills improved, and his engraving work began to be loved by friends and neighbors. He started receiving various custom requests, including engraving names on tools or water bottle to prevent loss and engraving photos on necklaces and keychains to preserve precious memories.

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?
