This week's Nice Neighbours are Matt, Amelie and Jireh Rudich of Papakura. They were nominated by Yolanda Schuller.

On Yolanda's birthday, her husband had a major heart attack. They had an entire day planned, but then life threw a spanner into the works.

Yolanda asked Amelie to feed her cat, Koda, but Amelie's family went over and above. They cooked dinners two nights in a row and sent yummy treats during the tough time.

“I was really touched by their love, prayers and generosity. They are amazing. I couldn’t wish for better neighbours,” said Yolanda.

Nominate a Nice Neighbour you know, and they could be recognized on Stuff (and you both win a prize!).

Christchurch hosted the 60th edition of the extraordinary and historic Bacardi Cup last week. This special lawn bowls event relies on efforts of many, none-more-so than Kevin Hickman resident Greg Rhodes who remains extremely passionate about the sport and the people it draws in.

Greg and members of the liquor industry were in the Garden City this week to celebrate six decades of the Hospitality New Zealand National Bacardi cup. This year the event took place on Riccarton Racecourse Bowling Club and Bowls Hornby greens.

Trade members from around New Zealand have traditionally met in one of the main centres to lay down some bowls on greens to compete for what has been valued as a $40,000 solid silver cup, originally made in Mexico. The cup itself is believed to be the richest New Zealand sporting trophy and stands at a whopping one-metre high.
