Wow Just Wow

Alister from Dream Big New Zealand

๐ŸฅŠ The start of chapter 16 in Will Smith's audiobook "Will" captured my attention immediately. And what a delight it is to learn more about the great Mohammad Ali. I knew he was a boxer. To hear Will's commentary of how he refused to fight in the Vietnam war & his reasons for that - WOW. Instant admiration & respect for the guy.
โœจ Leading into Will sharing meeting Ali he changes pace, slows down & shares the below. Time stood still. Have any of you read "Will"? What was a stand-out part of the story for you? We'd love to hear - www.DreamBigNewZealand.co.nz...

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? ๐Ÿ’ฐ๐ŸŒฒ

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if itโ€™s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

๐Ÿš’ Our Fire and Emergency crews have been kept busy lately

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

And theyโ€™re once again reminding everyone: please donโ€™t light fires when itโ€™s windy.

Central Otago will move into a restricted fire season from 1 December 2025, which means anyone planning an outdoor fire will need to apply for a permit and plan ahead.

So weโ€™d love to ask you โ€” how do you make sure youโ€™re being fire-safe at this time of year?
