SPCA Pet of the Day: Four little piggies.

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

"Hello! We are 4 very sweet piglets (there are 3 females and 1 male). We would love to be in a nice rural area with a big paddock we can spend our days in, digging around and eating some nice food and treats. Unfortunately we are unable to live in urban areas. We need to go out in pairs, or together as a group of 4. We would also be okay going to our new homes where there may be an existing pig family we can join in on. If you have room in your farm family for us, please enquire with the Wellington SPCA team."

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
