Poll: Should your neighbours be allowed to pick your fruit?
Did you know that according to Auckland Community Law, if you cut down a branch from your neighbour’s tree, which is encroaching on your property, you need to return the fruit that that branch bore to the owner?
However, if the fruit falls naturally outside of the property, anyone can gather it.
With urban foraging and communal gardening becoming more popular, should the Communal laws be changed, or is the owner entitled to all the fruit and herbs grown from their property?

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

Lost blue embossed scarf
Hi Everyone. Just on the off chance someone may have spotted my very pretty scarf/ stole, I am trying Neighbourly as a means to find it. It is a light blue colour with gold bumble bees embossed on top . It may have slipped off my shoulders without me realising. My mobile is 021-817-246 and fingers crossed it may turn up. Thank you.
Carpet inspection needed
Hi
I've just had new carpet laid throughout my house. I'm not happy with the result, as pieces don't match where they should, and in a hallway there are 5 joins where should not have been more than two. The supplier says there's nothing wrong. I would like a professional carpet person to look at it for an independent assessment. Does anyone know of someone who could do this?
Nga mihi
