CAT HIT AND RUN - GUY ROAD MOSGIEL - SUN 7 MAY
So my neighbour sadly lost her cat today, early pm. Someone hit; and carried on, literally leaving it for dead.
A kind lady stopped and put her on the side of the road; and came to tell me (I admit I DID heave a sigh of relief when I knew it wasn't our cat); and so I had to ring my neighbour at work and break the news to her.
Poor puss was 17yo; but didn't deserve to go in such a tragic way.
So to the cowardly person who took the life of a very much loved family pet: show a bit of compassion and respect in future... and bloody well slow down. Guy Road is NOT a drag strip... it's a road with families and pets.
KEEP OUR ROAD SAFE!!!
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
