Hi neighbours,

Christmas is supposed to be the jolliest time of year - full of whimsical family reunions, selfless gift-giving and Masterchef-worthy feasts.

But sometimes this just isn't captured on camera. We're after those amazingly awkward Christmas moments that have been captured on film.

Maybe it was the time you went to visit Santa and your little one didn't want a bar of it. Maybe it was a self-timed family shot that went horribly awry. Or a Christmas meal that was more a festive fail.

Whatever the not-so-merry moment, we want to see it! Share your pictures and a little bit about them with us in Stuff Nation. We look forward to seeing them! Here's the link to contribute.

Come along to our free public lecture: on Sunday, December 2nd at 2pm at The Sydenham Room, South Christchurch Library, 66 Colombo St.

For many people, it is time to explore a deeper meaning of life — to know thyself‚ as the ancient philosophers urged. One way to do this is through studying with the Rosicrucian Order.

You will explore how the human mind works, learn self healing techniques, unleash your full creative potential, empower yourself to achieve new goals, practise effective meditation to realise inner peace and harmony, and most importantly, discover your mystical connection with the universe. All this is done through home learning and personal experimentation, although there are local groups to join if you wish.

The Rosicrucian Order AMORC is nonprofit, non-religious, non-political. It is an international organisation — the largest of its kind in the western world — of educators, students and seekers exploring inner wisdom and the meaning of life.

To find out if The Rosicrucian Order can benefit you, go to the website www.amorc.org.au, or for the free, no obligation booklet Mastery Of Life phone 027 552 7777, or email nzrc@amorc.org.au

Hi neighbours,

Would you like to live here? The first homes have been finished in central Christchurch's 900-home east frame housing precinct - more than six years after the development was first announced.

But the homes do come at a cost. The 20 three-storey, three-bedroom homes have gone on sale priced from $1.175m to just under $1.59m, ranging in size from 168 square metres to 214sqm, including an internal garage. To read more, click here.

What are your thoughts on the buildings? Do you think they'll attract people into the Christchurch CBD? Or are they too pricey? Share your views with us in the replies below.

When poppies get the blues

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

We love poppies, and this Tibetan blue (Meconopsis betonicifolia) is especially eye-catching. They are available from a number of nurseries, including Blue Mountain in Tapanui.

Learning to have fun on two wheels as middle age looms

Anna Williams Reporter from The Press

OPINION: Johnny Moore says if the smiles from ear to ear are anything to go by then the electric scooter trial is a success. The "grumpy old men" need to stop grizzling and remember what having fun is like.
