Lost cats
We have another cat up broken hill road, kenepuru near the tip entrance that has been sitting having a good ole meow out there tonight & as that is their way of communicating with humans, i dare say this poor baby is perhaps lost.. We haven't managed t get a pic of it yet but at this stage it looks like possibly a ragdoll / birmese breed so far. Dark face, dark tail but light cream/honey coloured body. Just a good reminder to those that have most their furbabies to flick me a private message if you have lost your cat locally in particular for me to sing out names late at night when these cats come out to find food. We have reunited cats with their families as far as waikanae before as the food source would be plentiful with the tip here ect. so please do message me if so, I'd love nothing more than to reunite more loved ones with their furbabies, it can be so hard scrolling through pages n pages looking at photos alike & some may get lost in the past aswell. :)
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?

New World Khandallah parking warning and appeal to nearby business owners
For very valid reasons (local commuters abuse) the New World has allowed the draconian Smartcomply company to police their carpark on their behalf.
Smartcomply will hit you with an $85 'fine' if you stay one second beyond the 60 minutes allowed.
Can I appeal to all nearby business's (especially eateries) to display a clearly visible "ARE YOU PARKED IN THE NEW WORD CARPARK' notice so customers can be warned about the possibility of an unpleasant post dining experience surprise.
A local eatery, and New World itself, could lose future custom due Smartcomply's excessive actions, as is likely our case.
Indeed I would urge any business local to a Smartcomply operation to implement a "ARE YOU PARKED IN ..........." notice if they wanted to avoid a lose in trade.
Here is the link to their Terms and Conditions that all entrants to a carpark under their control are expected to notice and read.
