Car damage

Ingrid from Brooklyn

Please can people be careful when reversing and turning their cars. I have had my car damaged twice last week when it was parked (at Kilbirnie and Brooklyn) and no notes were left. I am having to pay around $600 even though I have insurance. The silly season is almost here. Please all calm down on … View morePlease can people be careful when reversing and turning their cars.

Congratulations Korokoro! Our suburb of the week last week.

Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?
Whatever the name, they're an awesome bunch of #waterlovers, which is great to see as this summer is just starting to heat up.

We need to make sure we're looking after our water so it lasts all summer long!

Tell your family and friends who live up Korokoro that they're doing a great job.

One of our favourite tips is to collect water in a rainwater tank. This water is a great way to give your garden a bit of extra love when it's hot, and can be used after an earthquake as emergency water.

What tips will you be doing this week to help your suburb take the prestigious 'Suburb of the Week' title?

Hi Neighbours,

We have fully furnished room available now for short or long term stays in Wilton. Please message me if you or someone else is interested.

The room is in our downstairs flat and you'll be sharing common areas with another couple.

So far we have had people from the UK, Germany and USA stay for 4 months to 1 year at a time (but happy for shorter or longer stays). We have enjoyed meeting new people and showing off what Wellington has to offer.

The room and house are fully furnished, and include everything you need (linen, unlimited wifi, power, netflix, rubbish collection, even washing powder) - you just need to bring your bag.

For more information, check out our trademe ad:
