Have you ever struggled with a noisy neighbour? How did you manage the situation? Should there be a Sunday morning noise ban? Maybe you'd like New Zealand neighbourhoods to be more like they were 'back in the day' with quiet Sunday mornings - or even a day of rest. What noise do you find the hardest to cope with? Have your say below.
Hi All.
Sorry to say that last night I picked up a large bunny off the road at the bottom of the Maoribank Hill. I put it on the grass berm in front of the large house at the bottom of Cruickshank Rd. Very sorry if this is your beloved pet

This was enacted as part of an agreement and a set of circumstances between all the contracted rugby players in NZ and their franchises and the NZRFU.
So SBW took the opportunity to thread-in the charity organisation"Plunket" on both sides of the collar of his Blues jersey which means he is promoting Plunket.
The irony is that the principal sponsor of Plunket is none other that the BNZ which is one of the two sponsors that SBW discarded from his playing jersey.
SBW says he has nothing against the BNZ other than the interest fees the bank imposes but the Plunket connection with the bank still gave me a bit of a laugh.

We sing a large variety of music styles and perform regularly throughout the year. Rehearsals are in Upper Hutt on Sunday afternoons. Kids don't need to read music or audition to join The Major Minors Children's Choir. Current members are aged 4-15.
We also have an extension group The Harmonic Minors which is auditioned. This group assists with harmonies with the Major Minors and they have their own repertoire too.
Our term fees are very reasonable as we run this group voluntarily.

The NZ and Aussie national anthems were also boosted by Anita leading the singing of them.
Women taking leading roles at the 2017 UH parade was not lost on me. The well composed address from a woman representing the military was appreciated.
