Three times in a row and a few times before, I am getting two weekly Leader newpapers delivered in my mailbox.
I am thrilled that the Leader thinks of me so often and to top it off I am willing to sell for only $5 my spare current copy.
Join the movement to help make Aotearoa a better place to live!

It’s called Plan Change 50. We’re seeking your feedback on our draft proposals now.
Two areas of significant interest for our community will be the high and medium density residential zones. We’re proposing to dramatically increase the level of intensification across the city.
To read the fact sheets for both of these zones and to share your feedback, go to letskorero.upperhuttcity.com/pc50
Feedback closes 30 August 2021.

Upper Hutt Mayor Wayne Guppy said all options, including apartments, are on the table for the future development of Main Street. A recent social media post by Marita Manns Maass resulted in a wide ranging discussion on the future of the main shopping street.
Maass, who described the "street as a dog's breakfast" suggested the council should look to Europe for design inspiration and for ways to reduce the number of empty shops.
Ideas suggested included making the street pedestrian only.
Tell us what you would like to see done with the street to make it more attractive.
If you do not want your comments used by Stuff put NFP.

Or maybe your home feels (dare we say it) MOIST?
The truth is that there are lots of things that contribute to how healthy a home feels and how well it functions.

This is a completely free service for homeowners in Wellington City.

"This afternoon it was off to Pāuatahanui for a kingfisher hunt with a husband who is very good at taking my hints about it being a beautiful day whilst staring at the birds that were flying around outside!
The kingfishers were certainly in the usual place, but not really being social with each other as they were on our previous trip.
I waded out in my wellies but couldn't really get as close to them as I would have wanted to! Here are a few shots of them on various bits of driftwood, some with crabs in their mouths, some without! It was lovely to also capture the spoonbills coming into land to have a feed."
