Vile smell

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

I have just come home from Hastings, and am up the hill by Duart House. There is a vile smell that hit me like rancid fish curry left in the sun, when I got out of the van. It’s not me or my house. Does anyone know what it is or where it’s coming from?
I was quite looking forward to sitting outside for a bit. Not now though.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
