Mosquitos!!
I'm a little bit over not being able to open doors in the evenings or even go into the shaded garden during the day because of darn mosquitos!
The CCC won't do anything about them but perhaps if we all do one simple thing it may help. Please check all around your properties for water sitting in containers like flower pots, old tyres behind the shed etc or anything that will hold water. If you have anything like that with water in it, if you look closely you will possibly see little wrigley larvae in the water. Please empty it out! Also, for any of your neighbours not on Neighbourly, perhaps mention it to them next time you are chinwagging over the fence!
Many thanks!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
31.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
68.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
