Suzanne from Rangiora

Kia ora neighbours, bit of a random request here! I need to find out where I can get an educational/information "panel" made for a charity fundraising event this Saturday. I can't for the life of me think what these are called - I'm sure that they have a special name. They're along the lines of a teardrop advertising "banner" (again, for want of a better/correct term) but would be rectangular and hang vertically with a weighted base and made from some sort of weatherproof fabric (likely synthetic)....if this makes sense!? Can anyone tell me what the correct term is for these, and also where I might be able to get one made urgently either in Rangiora, Kaiapoi, or Christchurch? Many thanks in advance!

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
