We are looking for new members

Darrell Daglish from North Shore Concert Band

We are a friendly, community band, made up of great people of all ages, cultures, and musical abilities.
If you would like to try out our band, we practice in the auditorium at Birkenhead College each Tuesday night @ 7.30.
We are in real need of a Tuba/Base, French horns, trumpets, and basoon right now. But we would be keen for any saxophones, clarinets, flutes, oboe, and percussion.
We play everything from movie themes, musicals, classical, rock, jazz etc.
For many years we have had an annual concert at the PumpHouse Theatre...this year we have 2. The one we just had was a sellout!
It's fun.
If you want to know anything more about the band please call me, Darrell, on 021 99 88 95.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
