Jack belongs to Catrina Nicholson.
"Jack is seven years old and we have had him for under two months now. I put out a post asking if anyone was trying to find a home for a cat they could no longer take care of. So we had two on the day we went to see them. And we went for this boy Jack, settled in so fast."

Lily belongs to John and Virginia Francis, from Paraparaumu.
"Our Lily is a Maltese Sydney Silkie cross. At 17 months she is fully grown at 3kg. Loves meeting children and other small dogs."

Hey,

I've got a spare bed (frame + mattress) available for pick-up if someone's keen. A few caveats (and solutions) below:
1. House is down 'a couple' of stairs - I'm willing to help though to get it up to the pick-up truck/ute.
2. I bought it with its broken leg (hasn't been a problem for me really; refer picture).
3. Everything's clean and free of any damage whatsoever (apart from the leg thing).

I'm giving it away because I need more space in my bedroom. I'll probably end up buying a smaller size bed for myself. Contact on number below.

Thanks

They are known around the traps at Wellington Hospital as the three wise men, but Christmas Day triplets Elia​, Rumi​, and Sameer​ Alqudah were only born in the capital because there was no room at the Auckland inn.

Happy New Year to everyone on Neighbourly. This week we feature Rosa Marie, who took her camera out on Christmas Day. You have got to love the picture of the pied stilt chick!

"Before the festivities began, it was a quick drive over the Pauahatanui Inlet to try and capture some Kingfishers on camera, but it turned out to be Pied Stilt kind of day as we couldn't see any Kingfishers. Most of these photos are taken from one of the hides! There were Pied Stilt chicks too so their parental concern was quite evident from lots of noisy flapping of wings at other birds when they got too close. They were quite grumpy with each other too!"

It's been a wet and warm few months which has been great for grass, but not so good for our mowing team, which has been busy trying to keep up with keeping it down.

The focus recently has been on busy sites like play areas, cemeteries and reserves, but despite our staff being a cut above the rest and working long hours straight through to the New Year, we may not get to mow and trim everywhere – so we ask for patience in the meantime, and to remember the grass is always greener!

For more info on our awesome mowing team, check out the story and video here: wellington.govt.nz...
