What tree is this, please, gardeners??
Hi all. We look out at a magnificient large tree across the valley from us. In early summer the wood pigeons spend a lot of time in it. It has milky sap if you break a bit off, at the moment it has immature 'berries' which we guess is what the pigeons enjoy later on. I've uploaded some pictures in the hope someone can identify the type of tree for me. Incidentally, I think I have a small epiphyte of this same tree growing in a fork of my causurina tree. Is there anyone out there who can identify this tree for me? Thanks in advance.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
