Dumped Fridge
Hi, does anyone know who dumped a large fridge at the top entrance to Irvine Street lane, on Rarora Road? if you do, can you please remind them there are a couple of ways to move free stuff on, through 'Free Wellington' or the tip 'recycling center'. It is not ok to just leave stuff on the side of the road for your neighbors to end up having to deal with. I suspect it is no longer in working order as it has been left uncovered out in the rain. It is also quite lazy to just dump stuff without returning to check if it has been picked up/removed thereby leaving it to others to get rid of whatever it is you don't want or can't be bothered paying for removal of. If it was you who left it, do please come back and remove it.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
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?
