"Just a spot of birding at our local park and this happened. I've got to stop dressing in green and thinking be still like a tree. I feel like a Disney princess (albeit years after filming when they have become old and crazy and someone no longer does their hair and makeup). I tried to scrape it off with one finger and it climbed onto that finger - it was like mobile chuddy or a sticking plaster, and I strongly resisted the urge to flick my hand. I managed to coax him onto an actual tree branch. His Mum turned up and growled. Called him an idiot.

Our Annual Street Appeal raised an amazing total of $31,900. This will go a long way towards caring for Hutt Valley patients with a life limiting or terminal illness and provide much needed support for their families. Thank you to all our amazing volunteers and to everyone who donated!

We simply couldn’t provide the service we do, free of charge, to all those who need it without the generous support of our community.

If you didn’t get a chance to donate during the Appeal, and you would still like to, you can donate online at www.teomanga.org.nz...

Poll: Should we have a four-day work week?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In 2018, a NZ company trialled the four-day week and claimed a 20% increase in productivity, encouraging them to make the change permanent. A four-day work week means employees are paid for 40 hours but only work 32 of those. Should this be rolled out across the country where possible?

Re: Washing Machine

Noella from Petone

Hi, my washing machine has just decided to stop working. It’s a Haier model top loaded, shows code E1. Can anyone recommend a cheap fixer? I was told $99 just for a tech to come out and $20 for every 10 minutes!
