Hi neighbours,

Any recommendations would be helpful & appreciated.

- Wellington Electricity is warning it could take up to 13 hours to restore power to the area in Upper Hutt, with slips blocking two access roads.
- Grays Rd in Plimmerton is closed this morning. The Riverbank carpark was closed but has since reopened.
- Block Rd was previously closed due to rising Hutt River levels, but has been reopened.
FORECAST: Northwest winds may approach severe gale in exposed places at times. Winds should ease from the south this afternoon and evening.
Wind gusts of this strength can cause some structural damage, including trees and powerlines, and may make driving hazardous. If any tornadoes do occur, they will only affect very localised areas.
- People are advised to keep up to date with the latest forecasts and warnings here.
- Follow Stuff for more updates.
- If you are without power, please keep an eye on your elderly neighbours and post to Neighbourly if you can lend a hand.

Thinking of hiring a local contractor to do some renovations on your house? A good rule of thumb is to obtain more than one quote, particularly if you are investing a large sum of money.
- Do you know the difference between a quote or an estimate?
- Will you need to hire multiple contractors?

Thankfully, a couple of guys going past saw the fire in the porch of a house, and called 111 to tell Fire and Emergency NZ about it.
By the time of the intervention by the passers-by, the occupants of the house had been alerted to the fire by the sounding of their smoke alarms, but they had no idea of where the smoke was coming from.
The fire itself was in a frying pan on a gas cooker in the porch at the rear of the house. The porch suffered minor damage, but the fire was only seconds away from breaking through the back door and into the house.
“Unattended cooking is the leading cause of fire and fire fatalities in New Zealand”
In this case, the smoke alarms would have prevented a fatality, but the unattended cooking, even though it was outside the back door, could have led to the loss of a family home and most of their possessions.
So there’s two lessons from this fire call today:
1. “Keep looking while you’re cooking!”
2. Smoke Alarms Save Lives
And if fire should happen to break out in your home…
Get out and stay out
In a fire, get everybody out and call 111.
And whatever you do, stay out.
Hello, is anyone having issues with "No Water" through you tap, shower ?

Hey neighbours, are you thinking of borrowing money by taking out a loan?

Before you do - there's a few things you really need to know about. Take a minute and read the tips below to ensure you're asking the right questions and getting the best loan for you.
1. Shop around! Interest rates, fees and terms must be made available to you by the lender. Make sure you compare details and make an informed decision about what loan is best for you.
2. Choose a lender. Did you know that when you borrow money to buy something, you don’t have to borrow from the same person who is selling the goods?
3. Understand. Whoever is loaning you the money must ask questions to make sure you can afford the loan. They also need to help you understand the key terms of the loan.
4. Be prepared. You'll need to provide your lender with information to show that you can afford to repay the loan. This might include proof of income and expenses so make sure you have it ready.
Don't get on Auntie's bad side and do your research! You can find more information here.

Let’s re-examine our compulsion to be in control. What power can we let go of, so that Christ can be more powerfully at work in us?
