Happy 2026
Hello Neighbours,hope every one has had a great start to the new year.Im meant to be on holiday but cant avoid the plea for help.Took some left over bbq we had today to a family who needed something for their tea.I was shocked to see the solo mother an her 4 children had no table an chairs to eat off, an barely anything else in the house. Clothes neatly folded on the floor of the kiddies room,as there were no drawers to put them in.Mattresses on the floor is their bed,an more needs because the mother was too proud to ask for help,until she saw our Free bbq.Tomorrow we will pick up most of what they need, except table an chairs.If you hava set you are not using I would gladly pick up for them.Lets start their New Year off by giving an hopefully the rest of the year will be fruitful for them an many others.Thanku Neighbours and a Happy 2026.

Between the headlines about the Strait of Hormuz and the creeping costs at our local stations, the "fuel crisis" has moved from the news to our wallets.
A recent opinion piece in The Post suggested that Wellington Councils should be shifting our public facilities to renewable energy ASAP to keep our rates from being vulnerable to these global fuel hikes. It’s a big conversation for the city, but what about your daily commute?
We want to know: With fuel prices staying high for the foreseeable future, are you changing how you get around the capital?
