Kaikohe's new water source, Lake Omapere, is at risk of toxic algal blooms, but Kaitaia's new water source is available thanks to iwi cutting back on irrigation. What do you think?
A Northland couple are awaiting coronavirus tests, after a man went to the Tool concert in Auckland with New Zealand's fourth confirmed coronavirus case, then got sick. Did you go to the concert? Are you worried about coronavirus?
Schools are getting ready to run classes online, in case the spread of coronavirus gets worse in New Zealand. Do you think schools should close, or take holidays early, to stop the virus spreading? What would be the trigger point for this? And how would it affect your family if it did happen?

Hi, a brand new skateboard was stolen out of a vehicle parked outside the Kerikeri Skateboard Park on Saturday night (image attached). Please phone or text 027 767 1284 if you have seen it. I imagine whoever stole it will try to sell it instead of using it themselves at the skatepark. Thank you.

“If I hear music, I just want to dance – body seems to just move!” says dancer Audrey, 84. Poet Brian, 86, says “Poetry helps me to question and understand the meaning of life”, followed by a witty “– haven’t worked out what it means yet”.
As their residents blaze their own trails, Ryman matches that pioneering spirit. “Ryman villages offer living choices to suit everyone so that you can live the way you want.”
