Poll: Have you ever tried learning a language?
Hannah Westbury likes to chat with customers at her checkout - so much so that she’s learning sign language for one regular.
Paeroa-based Westbury has worked in Woolworths for the past seven years and moved to checkout a year ago.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
