Poll: When's too early for DIY?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We can all generally agree that noise from loud music or parties in the early hours of Sunday is a no-no. But when is it okay to fire up the power tools, leaf blower or lawn mower on a Sunday morning?

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the We Say You Say column of your local paper.

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.

Matt Joe Gow at Hilltop Saturday 28 February

Anna from Kelburn

Today Saturday 7pm for 7.30 Start. Americana/Alt.Country artist Matt grew up in Dunedin but these days calls the road his home, and over his impressive career has toured with Grant Lee Phillips, Chris Isaak and the late great Justin Townes Earle. Backed subtly by a finger picked guitar figure, his voice will mesmerise you and allow you to slip away from whatever it was you were doing. His musical style is influenced by folk, blues, and soulful rock while being firmly rooted in country. Come along for a lovely evening concert. www.hilltophouseconcerts.co.nz...... ... All details sent with confirmation email.
