It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.
Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?

I used to walk this frequently a couple of months ago, but I was put off by a stocky guy on his bike slowing down near me and saying "hi beautiful" and looking back continuously at me as he cycled off. I didn't walk this track again after that until yesterday, where i saw him again and he said "geez you're gorgeous". I guess this may seem trivial but as a female walking alone I do feel more vulnerable....
Hi
This is a bit of a longshot but thought I'd give it a go.
I collect old films on video (like we used to get at video rental shops etc) and have a few tapes with mould on them and need cleaning.
Does anyone have an old video tape cleaning device or tape winder device they no longer need?

I'm planning to build my own video cleaning device as I have quite a few to clean but thought I'd ask here first just in case someone has one gathering dust in their garage somewhere. :-)
Thanks

The officer will claim to be from a particular department, tell you that you have been a victim of fraud or scam, and begin to try and obtain further financial information from you.
People have been directed to go to the bank and withdraw money for evidence of the scam.
This is a scam – no legitimate Police officer will ever ask you to hand over money for any reason.
Overnight we have had five instances of this being reported, people need to be vigilant.
Enquiries into reports of scams of a similar nature received last week remain ongoing.
We appreciate these scammers are convincing, but New Zealand Police will never contact you and ask you to withdraw money. New Zealand Police will also never contact people seeking their banking details, card numbers, PIN or passwords.
Older members of our community are being targeted and Police urge anyone with elderly or vulnerable relatives to make them aware this activity is a scam.
There are instances where legitimate Police officers will contact you as part of their duties.
Remember:
• Police will never ask for details about your bank cards, PIN or passwords over the phone.
• Trust your instincts.
• If something doesn't feel right, or is too good to be true, it probably is.
• If you are uncertain, ask for the officer’s details.
• Hang up, contact 105 and request the officer to contact you.
• Police aren’t in the business of offering prize money.
If you are in the unfortunate position of being a victim of a scam, please report the matter to Police.
Take the chance to upskill yourself on scam awareness, check for further information on the Netsafe website: netsafe.org.nz...
