Free music around Hamilton this weekend

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

A man who makes handcrafted metal guitars and a 12-year-old performer will be part of the Fête de la Musique (World Music Day) in Hamilton this weekend.
Roger McLay moved from hobby tinkerer to steel resonator maker about two-and-a-half years ago and has made about 16 guitars in that time.
Sean Lurman is the youngest member of the Hamilton Blues Society, and his playing has made a few jaws drop.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

Full refund ‘common sense’ in two-decade rates debacle

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The law blocking a full refund for a Hamilton woman who was overcharged rates for 21 years is “illogical,” a city councillor says.

Sue Moroney was investigating the possibility of a refund to Progressive Pilates owner Sonia Lidington, who says the council still owes her thousands of dollars.
