Lady asking for ride
Just had a lady hang around our place for 10-15 minutes before we realised she was even there very unsettlingly just standing at the front door in the dark no knock at the door or ring of the door bell dog kept growling and barking so went outside she was pleading for me to give her a ride to the supermarket I told her to wait till I put the dog inside she kept talking about going in the car for a ride then our dog continued to bark in her face it didn’t seem to faze her as she stepped closer. One of the boys went outside once I got the dog inside, the lady was still there and approached the gate again and changed her story to she broke up with her boyfriend and she needs help after being told repeatedly to leave we offered to call police to help her she just stood there staring then walked down our drive way looking in the cars etc just be careful guys!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
