Recycle
Ive watched the recycle man struggle with some bins, and had to leave others ... please remember its a man that lifts that overly full glass bin, hes not a machine, they dont have to take overfull bins for OSH reasons ... also dont put cans in a cardboard box into plastics/cans bin ... another thing, especially on our road and alot of others, theres cars parked on roadside of a non-parking road, the man cant get close let alone the truck, and totally blocks the road ... dont park on the road, park on your grassed area if you must, they need the truck to get close to the wheelie bins to pick them up and empty

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.

New neighbour
Okay folks, if you feed your animals outside, you might want to rethink that. We have new nocturnal neighbours, inside Havelock North.
There is a very well fed brush tail possum up the pōhutukawa tree in my garden.
I don’t know where it’s come in from, but it’s in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, so keep an eye on your pet doors, open windows and doors and pet food.
I’ll be notifying council and DOC tomorrow.
