Got a Nice Neighbour?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We’re looking for the nicest neighbours in town, and Pam Driver of Burswood has shared her lovely neighbours, David and Lara Hurst, saying they “are just wonderful”.

This year, Pam had a missing cat, which was quite out of character. Driver let the Hursts know, and they joined the search, successfully locating him in the gap between the ceiling and roof of their neighbour’s house.

Pam said “They rescued him and brought him home to me... complete with some scratches! I hate to think what would have happened had he not been found”.

Pam nominated the Hursts to let them know she is thankful for them: “It’s so good to know I have such caring neighbours who have my back. Thank you neighbours!”

Nominate someone in your hood, and your special neighbour could feature on Stuff and Neighbourly as an inspiration to us all (plus there are prizes to be won!).

Poll: Should Tīrau get a Burger King and Starbucks?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The South Waikato town of Tīrau could be in line for a corporate fast food takeover if consent is given for the building of a Starbucks and Burger King on the main drag though town.

But, some locals don’t think the corporate giants are the right fit for the town known for its boutique cafes, antique shops and corrugated iron inspired art works and facades.

What do you think? Would you want to see these fast food outlets on State Highway 1 in Tīrau? (Please add NFP if you do not want your comments to be used in print.)
