Hello. Due to unforeseen circumstances we are looking for a caring person / couple to live in and look after our sons house and also care and give company to his two friendly, medium sized dogs. They are mother, 3 years old, and daughter, 18 months. Should you consider this for part or all of this time, please call or text Gerhard 021 950 745 to discuss. The house is in a quite area in Linwood, Christchurch, with a nice, sunny, sheltered back yard in which the dogs can roam all day. Fully furnished, Internet, safe car park down the drive. Cutler Park around the corner and Charlesworth Reserve within easy walking distance, Sumner Beach, which the dogs love, 10 minutes by car. Could supply a small ute for transport, if neccessary/required.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Kind regards Gerhard 021 950 745

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.

Leslie from Avonside - Dallington

But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
