Hey neighbours,
are you using the long weekend to tackle that long-over due reno? Or do you have a project you'd love to do in your home or garden but don't know where to start?

The experts at Resene are offering to help answer all your painting and decorating questions. Whether it's how to choose the right type of paint to cover a stain, how to go about planning a mural, or how long you really need to spend on sanding down that woodwork, they're happy to help.

Send us your question at homed@stuff.co.nz or leave it in the comments and we'll put the best questions to the Resene team (please note: we may not be able to answer every single question). The answers will be published in an article on Stuff ahead of the long weekend.

If you don't want us to use your comment or name on Stuff, please mention that in your post.

The Palmerston North City Council is shooting Canada geese to reduce numbers.
Palmerston North City Council parks manager Kathy Dever-Tod​ said some residents would be upset that the culls were to continue, but the council had thoroughly investigated all options.
She said Canada geese were invasive and their aggressive personalities deterred many people, especially young families, from using local parks.
