Move
Hi
After this latest storm i need to move my family. We rent. The house is two story. We have had a leak come in the lower floor room twice now. It's a old house and there has been wooden slats/boards put on top of concrete and the water is coming under them. Its starting to move further into our room. I came home from shopping on Friday to find water in our room and leaking water from the top floor. Carpet saturated again. Our property manager doesn't take any of this seriously and i have had enough. We can't really stay here because our dad is in a wheel chair and is being cared for at home with us. So for his sake we need to move. But unfortunately it needs to be into a home that has two living quarters for the two families that like to stay together to help care for him. Please if anyone has such a place in central Auckland that would suit especially the blockhouse bay /hills borough area we will be stoked.
We are good paying tenants and just want somewhere warm and dry. We have a dog and a old grumpy cat but we love her. Catch me anytime.
Julia - Plus thanks everyone for the feed back on the water rates seems water is on all our minds at the moment take.
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
