Miserable people

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

It’s really sad that some people need to make life difficult for others, for no other reason than they can.

I keep putting notices up, for my garage sale, on the community notice board, at New World, and someone keeps taking them.
Logic suggests, given its happens 5 times in the last 2 weeks, someone doesn’t like me. I can live with that. But I’m not the only one this affects.
I have friends who are trying to sell their things here, because their place is not suited to doing it. They have no parking and no access. And this is entirely on my property.

So whoever you are (I’m pretty sure I can guess), pull your head in and stop being so anti neighbourly. If you don’t like me, deal with me, directly, or suck it up and move on.

POTTING MIX QUALITY

Patricia from Taradale

If, like me, you are an experienced and avid gardener you know how frustrating it is when those beautiful seedlings recently purchased fail to thrive. Have you ever considered it may not be your fault, you've done all the right things but it may be the new bag of potting mix you bought to plant them in . Have you ever complained to the garden centre? My recent experience showed the blatantly obvious difference between brands. The recently purchased product was nothing more than raw compost, whereas the previous product was a good mix and made the plants thrive. I was the only one to complain, there could not possibly be a problem with the product as they sell pallet loads of it........ Your comments would be appreciated.

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

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 it’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.
