Marina and Jon Graham are very proud of Murphy.

"Just spotted a cat on Neighbourly and we decided to send you a couple of photos of our dog Murphy. He is a lab cross pointer and he is doing particularly well in countin...the numbers of his snacks   He’s been studying well combining with some leisure time, so managed to graduate our home university...Hope his academic highness will brighten someone’s day, like he  makes our life happier for more than seven years."

Combining biking with bus travel

Sue from Brooklyn

Hi neighbours
Anyone out there who, like me, would love to bike more, but have difficulty getting their bike on the rack on the bus ? It's sometimes necessary, so as to avoid steep hills and roads where I don't feel safe.
Metlink say their drivers aren't meant to help.
