Come for a bit of Quiz fun on the 27th of March at The Brewers Merivale ,$25/pp entry and food is provided.
PT in the Park was born after the Canterbury earthquakes when people couldn’t access their gyms. To this day, it still provides free access to a weekly workout for people who might not be able to afford a gym membership!
We are all volunteers, and any money we get through donations or fundraising efforts like this quiz go to maintenance and fuel for our truck and trailer and buying equipment to deliver amazing effective workouts!
Hey! If you are a local business and wish to donate products or services for us to auction on the day please get in touch!

Does anyone have or know where to find or buy yellow mimosa flowers? They are an Italian tradition for International Women's day (8 March) and I would love to find some if possible.

Imagine a local company undertaking a rebranding exercise during a global pandemic?
That is exactly what Christchurch City Council owned venues company Vbase has announced.
It will be now known as "Venues Ōtautahi".
Chief Executive Caroline Harvie-Teare released a statement saying "Vbase is driven to contribute to the economic, social and cultural wellbeing of the region."
"Venues Ōtautahi reflects who we are and what we do, deepening our connection with the community and our cultural heritage."
"This change is also the company brand taking a step back and making these community owned venues the heroes."
It's longer than this, but please go read it on the Herald Page. This CCC and their imported Town Clerk are completely out of their depth.

It's been heartwarming to hear stories from across the North Island of people taking others into their home and sharing a cup of tea together or fixing them a meal.
For the latest official updates:
Hi folks,

My colleague Jo is writing a story about buying by tender, specifically, the new trend of writing letters to the vendor to explain why they should pick your offer over all the rest.
As the market gets harder and harder to break into, we've been hearing more and more about people trying to make a personal connection with vendors to give their tender offers the edge. We've heard folks will include personal details about their family, why the love the house and what their plans for the property are.
Jo would love to talk to anyone who's written a letter like this to accompany a tender - perhaps it's you, perhaps a relative or friend - or from vendors who've received letters like this, accompanying a tender.
Perhaps you asked for such letters?
We'd love to hear more about that experience for you and how it shaped the way the sale went.
You can reach out to jo here (she'll be joining the Neighbourly neighbourhood soon!) or via our email: homed@stuff.co.nz.
Looking forward to hearing your stories.
Happy Friday!!
Again, we are excited to share another success story. Congratulations to Daljeet and her family on getting their residence approved 👏👏

There`s a new market for digital artists which has opened up. A quick explainer.
Instead of selling the print, artists (like Banksy) sell the jpg file, which acts like a stock. So, you can buy and sell the “stock” (jpg file) or hold it as an investment through the market . So, I am doing a series on New Zealand birds which are about to go on the NFT (Non-Fungible-Token) art market via www.opensea.io...
This is my first piece. The buyer will receive the jpg file, and the A4 print, signed (one only). So heads up neighbours....if you`re interested this print will be sold for $250.00, signed by me, and it will be registered and minted in the market, which provides you with ongoing provenance for the artwork. Any questions let me know. Interested? Investors of course support the artist, but also create an investment vehicle for themselves. One that will grow and grow as the market develops. Any questions, let me know.
Your support is appreciated. Thanks.

People near coast from BAY OF ISLANDS to WHANGAREI including GREAT BARRIER ISLAND and from MATATA to TOLAGA BAY must MOVE IMMEDIATELY to nearest high ground, out of all tsunami evacuation zones, or as far inland as possible. Evacuate these areas even if you did not feel the earthquake. DO NOT WAIT. A damaging tsunami is possible.
People in all other areas who felt a LONG or STRONG earthquake should MOVE IMMEDIATELY to the nearest high ground, out of tsunami evacuation zones, or as far inland as possible.
This evacuation advice overrides the current COVID-19 Alert Level requirements. Do not stay at home. MOVE IMMEDIATELY. Stay 2 metres away from others if you can and if it is safe to do so.
People evacuating should walk, run or cycle if possible to reduce chance of getting stuck in traffic. Do not return until all-clear is given by Civil Defence.
Go to www.civildefence.govt.nz... for the most up to date information.

A view of Christchurch's Victoria Square, looking towards the Park Royal before it became a five-star Crowne Plaza Hotel in 2002. The 297-room building was constructed in 1988 and demolished in 2012 after Canterbury's earthquakes.
