Terrible NZ Post (non service)
I am trying to follow up on a package picked up locally by NZ Post on 7/7 for delivery to me. Both sender and myself are on the Shore. The only update is " Package received by NZ Post" ( on 7/7). I am trying to find out why it has taken 11 days so far ( including weekends) to further update or deliver. Attempts to call are USELESS as they pigeonhole you and you cannot get to speak to a human. I also initiated an online inquiry to which I have not even received an acknowlegement . They have the now normal response "We are experiencing higher volumes..." from the COVID days. Why do all these organisations not employ more staff to handle this? They have a radio Ad claiming to be the best courier service for businesses. Maybe that is where all their efforts go. Very annoyed

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?

Plastic beach rubbish
Two recent emus on Takapuna beach. One lithium battery picked up from the edge of the deck of the Harbour Bridge during the recent Hikoi. My guess is the other half is sitting at the bottom of the Waitemata Harbour.
