This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!

Remember 86% of Kiwis want to get to know their neighbours better, but just don't see them around much (71%). Take the first step!
Anyone have any spare currency that they are not going to need? It's hard to get any, and I would like a few hundred rupees for when I first arrive. Would pay an agreed exchange rate.

Hi, anyone interested in sharing transport to Amberley Library, Monday night 6th February, to hear the information evening put on by Food for Thought? It's at 7.30pm and the talk is about Inside the Ageing brain. I could take up to 3 people, or use your car and I'd contribute to petrol.
More change is on the way for High St, Rangiora.

Some mayors are keen to resurrect the train service between Christchurch and Dunedin. Would you use it? Did you ever travel on the Southerner before it stopped in 2002? Tell us what you think.

So it was with great delight that I shared a coffee with the lovely Sally Lane from Compass FM last week.
We think Compass FM is doing a magnificent job in our community (and play some of my favourite music), so we're teaming up with the good folk on the airwaves. We'll be having regular chats about what you can expect to find in your paper in coming days, and sharing our - and your - stories with them.
Listen out for my somewhat dulcet tones on a Wednesday morning and tune in to keep on top of North Canterbury's latest news and events on Compass, 104.9FM.
