Missy hailed a hero for alerting owner to massive Christchurch fire

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Happy Monday neighbours,

How's this for a good dog?

Kurt Stewart is hailing former “gang dog” Missy a hero for raising the alarm when a large blaze erupted in a building just metres from where he lives on Sunday.

Missy – a rescue dog – saved him and those living in the neighbouring Woolston properties, he believed.

Covid update - National figures

Gordon from Halswell

Another encouraging result as another drop puts it into the 2400 zone, the best since Feb 2022
It is still concerning that Cant seems slower to drop 16.6% again and I found out today, that both my next-door neighbours had it last week and are struggling to get over it.
Stay safe folks.
