Hi Auckland,

What do you think about the newly announced festival on Motutapu?

Island Time on Motutapu is a festival to be held over the last weekend in February and is set to feature a smorgasbord of food and drink vendors and music artists.

Festival-goers will be treated to a day long festival on either February 27 or 28 on the island. Tickets range from between $65 to $85, with a portion of ticket sales going towards to wildlife conservation.

Billy Brown, the deputy chairman of Ngāi Tai Ki Tamaki, said that it is an excellent opportunity to showcase the culture of the island and for them to educate visitors about volunteer opportunities on Motutapu.
“In the end, we want a calendar of events on the island, covering sports, arts, food – all of it," he said.

Is it OK in these Covid times to de-mask for a beer or a coffee on a ferry?

Todd Niall Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi Neighbours, If mask-wearing is mandatory on all public transport, why are more people not getting pulled up for failing to do so. And does it make sense to allowed masks to drop for a beer, wine or coffee? Read the story below:

Hi,
Thank you all so much for all the amazing furniture donations we received in the last couple of weeks. Unfortunately, we are struggling with moving them around as we have an old lightweight flat trolley that isn’t designed for what we put it through.
Is there anyone out there who has a FURNITURE TROLLEY and would be willing to donate it to the shop that we can Relove?
I’ll add a picture of the kind we dream of and keep my fingers crossed. Just leave a comment below or message us. Many thanks and have a great long weekend!
