You've been the best this year Auckland !

Todd Niall Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi Neighbours, 2020 - well it's all been said really hasn't it. Auckland has had a double-dose of the hardest part of Covid-19, with two big restrictions. But what a response from you all. My thoughts are below:

TVNZ on Demand Coke ads

Karen from Totara Vale

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this ad? "Hey you, just chilling with your favourite show?" she asks holding up a bottle of coke. That bottle has my name on it.

"Hey you, just chilling with your favourite show?" she asks holding up a bottle of coke. That bottle has my name on it. Is that just a coincidence and I'm just paranoid or has anyone else noticed that that bottle carries their first name?
The reason I ask is that when I have to sign back in to the TVNZ on Demand service it always makes me state who's watching before I can proceed which means I have to state my name. Advertisers are pretty clever and Coca Cola has been offering personalised bottles...Your thoughts?

Fireworks

Karen from Totara Vale

When are we going to stop public sales of fireworks? How many lost, injured and dead animals from last night? The Pukekos in our neighbourhood are conspicuous by their absence this morning. Let's hope they haven't abandoned babies in their nest. All for the sake of human … View moreWhen are we going to stop public sales of fireworks? How many lost, injured and dead animals from last night? The Pukekos in our neighbourhood are conspicuous by their absence this morning. Let's hope they haven't abandoned babies in their nest. All for the sake of human entertainment. It's barbaric.

Urgent alert function- and its use

Blair from Albany

Suggest that Neighbourly should remove this function off sections of the site where it is not needed, like items for sale etc and only used in crime and safety perhaps? Received spam today for someone selling some bricks....

"Mending Wall ", all about good neighbours - a poem by Robert Frost in 1914

David from Waiake

This is one of those rare poems which can be found in countless anthologies, hence read and appreciated by generation upon generation the world over. Frost wrote it way back, in the plain speech of New England farmers in the USA.
It came back to prominence in the Cuban missile crisis of 1963 and … View more
This is one of those rare poems which can be found in countless anthologies, hence read and appreciated by generation upon generation the world over. Frost wrote it way back, in the plain speech of New England farmers in the USA.
It came back to prominence in the Cuban missile crisis of 1963 and again in 2016, as Donald Trump began his disgraceful campaign around "build that wall".
The cadences pulse with deeper, darker themes, paradoxes inherent
in all human relationships.
I really enjoyed illustrating it with copper plate intaglio etchings. Why not make 2021 the year when you let the creative impulse to building positive relationship guide your thinking.

The best summer ferry trips to take from Auckland - and what to do once you're there

Caroline Williams Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Summer daytrips out of Auckland always seem like a great plan until you’re trapped in a sticky motorway crawl, with thousands of other people who had the same bright idea.

But swap your roadie for a ferry and you’ll gain time, save petrol, and get sweet views from the water to boot.

Rangitoto and Waiheke might be the obvious island destinations, but there are plenty more places you can explore via the water.

How does one sum up a distinguished career upon being awarded New Zealand's highest royal honour?

“It’s always been this huge adventure,” Dame Anne Salmond says of her career as an anthropologist, environmentalist and multi award-winning author, unable to settle on a particular highlight.

Salmond's work has been recognised with a multitude of awards and honours.

Despite this, Salmond, a resident of Stanley Point, said she was stunned and overwhelmed to receive a letter telling her she had been named a Member of the Order of New Zealand for services to New Zealand in the 2021 New Year Honours.

Hi neighbours. We're still being asked to conserve water after one of the driest years on record.

Following a dry 2019, the region saw a record 40 days with no rain in January and February, paving the way for water restrictions that would continue into December.

Despite the restrictions and Aucklanders being the most efficient water users in New Zealand, the dam levels are still low and Watercare is asking everyone to try and save 20 litres per day.

We’ve put together a list of easy ways you can save water around your home, as well as a few ideas for if you’re willing to go the extra mile.
