This is your chance to celebrate your hood by sharing stories, photos or video. We really want to see and hear about the people in your neighbourhood. Portraits or videos of our neighbourhood champions, or the people that to you personify your community or ‘hood’. This year we’re doing it a little differently. To help focus (excuse the photography pun) we’ve chosen three themes.
1 – I Heart the History of My Hood
Everywhere we live has history, and stories. Do you know your hood’s history? Or maybe you know someone who has lived in the community for what seems like a million years, and know the place like that back of their hand. Was your hood the birth place of the women’s vote, or maybe site of the biggest lamington ever made way back in 53′ ….(Yes I know, random, but honestly we’re interesting in anything and everything)… By the way – this is also an awesome way to get our older ‘story tellers’ involved.
2 – I Heart Diversity in my Hood
New Zealand really has become a melting pot and that brings with it the rainbow of diversity of all kinds. Maybe you have the ‘united nations’ living on one street, maybe your neighbourhood pot luck dinners are better and more interesting than an international food fair could every dream of! We want to see and hear about it.
3 – I Heart My Healthy Hood
With our clean green image, amazing fresh foods, picture perfect outdoor environment, we know there are neighbourhoods out there that personify ‘health’. Is your neighbourhood or neighbour one of them? It could be through a neighbourhood walking group, or a ‘from garden to plate thanks to the shared neighbourhood community garden’ kind of thing. It might be a neighbourhood that has committed to getting the kids off screens and outside, or maybe its a whole street of cross fit power vegans ….. probably not … but you never know. What ever it is, we want to see and hear about it.
To enter go to our website and ‘share your story’
So get snapping and chatting. We have more information on I Heart My Hood available on facebook and on our website.

Hey everybody why not give this a go?

The first Aotearoa Bike Challenge kicked off across the country early this month, but is not too late to sign up.
More than 760 organisations and 6,400 New Zealanders have already geared up for the month-long challenge which started on February 1.
Registrations remain open until February 28 and a 10 minute journey by bike is all it takes to participate.
The Challenge is based on the global Love to Ride platform which has been brought to New Zealand by the NZ Transport Agency.
"Whether you have some experience in the saddle or are completely new to cycling, the Challenge provides riders with support and motivation and the knowledge that thousands of New Zealanders will be doing it with them," says NZ Transport Agency National Cycling Manager Dougal List.
As well as encouraging individuals to cycle it is a great way to make the most of friendly workplace competition.
The number of rides clocked up by a team contributes towards the efforts of the organisation as a whole. So the more people you get involved, the more chance you have of winning great prizes.
To give riders an extra incentive there is a brand new eBike, a Panasonic Smart TV, cycling gear, movie vouchers and many more prizes to be won.

Hi, I have a favour to ask of anyone out there who has a male birman ragdoll x that has not been desexed, or any breeder who has a stud and feels kind.

We lost our lovely birman ragdoll x boy and my daughter is heartbroken. A friend has a three quarter ragdoll queen a year old. I want to find a stud to breed with her and maybe convince my daughter the babies were from her lovely boy (he had not been desexed) so she could choose one from the litter. Please email me if you can help. donna@digitype.co.nz . We got our baby boy from the pet shop at Maunu so if anyone has a brother of his that would be perfect.

Ours has decided to crap out on us.The door can by manually opened and shut. We can hear the motor run when the button is pressed but its not moving the chain. Yes we have checked the obvious, the lock is engaged. It seems as though there is a cog inside the housing that may be stripped?????Any help would be great...Rather than pay $700 for a new one...
