My dad

Glen from Central Whangarei

My dad is 92, he just wrote this little poem

I don't know what to do now that I'm 92
I'll have to wait and see when I turn 93

Perhaps I'll do much more when I am 94

And really come alive when I reach 95

Maybe I'll learn new tricks when I am 96

And not go up to Heaven just because I'm 97

Life will still be great when I am 98

And everything was just fine when I turn 99

Nothing rhymes with Hundred and so I'll have to say

I'll have a cold Waikato to celebrate the day

Dad

And not go up to Heaven just because I'm

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
