recent Neighbourly poll

Graham & Christine from Kennedys Bush

I read with interest the comments on the recent Neighbourly poll regarding what we should be doing about climate, especially in the wake of the last few years' worth of floods in New Zealand.
I invite all readers to source their information from reputable sources such as our own NIWA: niwa.co.nz... , the USA's NASA: climate.nasa.gov... ,
the Australian CSIRO: www.csiro.au... , or the equivalent national science academy from any developed nation.
That would put an end to unsupported, inaccurate or irrelevant amateur opinions such as "the climate has always changed" or "volcanoes emit more GHGs than people do."
We should be very wary of confusing evidence with opinion or wishful thinking.
I feel very strongly about this, as in a decade or two we will have to justify our action (or lack of it) to our children. www.economist.com...

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?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am Clifford Jose, legal counsel to the late Mr. Robert Fitzpatrick, an American consultant formerly with Shell UK Ltd in London. Tragically, Mr. Fitzpatrick passed away in the EgyptAir Flight 990 crash on October 31, 1999.

Despite exhaustive efforts, we have been unable to locate any next of kin or ascertain the existence of a valid will. Consequently, I am reaching out to seek your assistance in this matter.

Please find attached further details for your review.

Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to your response.

Yours sincerely,
Barrister Clifford Jose
