SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Max and Mila

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

"Our family could no longer take care of us, so now we are looking for a new home. We are best friends and will need to be adopted together. We are not yet used to lots of handling, so would not be suitable for young children. We need an experienced home to help us get used to the ways of the world.
We will need a large grassy area for daytime, with a weather-proof hutch. At night we will need to be inside with you as part of the family, so an area inside your home to call our own will be needed. If this sounds like your set up, please click apply now, so my caregivers can learn more about you, and make you an appointment to come and meet us."

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
