Poll: Are you a Lord of The Rings fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The famous sign on the gate to Bilbo Baggins’ house states emphatically “No admittance - except on party business”.

Bilbo might not have been there to partake himself, but a glorious party, complete with star-studded guest list, was held in Hobbiton on Tuesday night. The occasion was the release of The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim.

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.
