Rubbish dumped on section at Bay View

Brenda from Bayview - Eskdale

Anyone else disgusted by the rubbish dumped on the "cars for sale" section on Gill Road/Main North Road corner? I cleaned up two bags with my own HDC rubbish bags and a friend has tried to clean up some of the black bags and put them out to be collected but has been told in no uncertain terms by NCC Council staff to leave it alone or SHE will be prosecuted!! A council staff member was actually sitting in a van nearby this morning waiting to pounce as soon as she touched it - so council have the resources to send someone out to stake out the area & warn off people trying to clean it up but no resources to clean up the rubbish? In the meantime it is absolutely heaving with maggots and bugs and is only going to get worse if stray dogs get into it.

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?
