'I have to get that, if I don't reply right now they may think I don't like them anymore' ' oh no what if they think I'm upset or mad with them?'
'If I don't reply they may never want talk to me again'. 'One text won't hurt, I should be ok to do this, just pray the next light is red... oh it's green'. 'Well no one is watching, it's just a quick text anyway'. 'Phew, done
Beep beep.. ding!
'Oh no a text and Facebook' 'if I don't reply fast they may think they have offended me or maybe they will go out without me' ...'I had better reply
And if I don't like the post someone just put up on FB then they may not like my post, I have to be liked.... it's so important!!'
'What!. My phone, where is it?? .. and why is everything so quiet?..Where am I? I have to like that post, it's really important!!'
'Why is everything so quiet?'
'Why are people rushing to my car?'

'It's only now that I realise that the likes are not important, the texts can wait and my friends will still have been my friends'
'Buts it's too late, I didn't see that truck coming, the like button was too important, the text I had to reply to took away my common sense'.
'If only I had waited, if only I had not been so worried about what others thought of me, if only I wasn't so concerned with everyone else then maybe I would have seen that truck and stopped in time..... if only'.......

Several dog owners living in a rural Hawke's Bay area received the paperwork on Hastings District Council letterheads last week.
The notices, written by a Dog Control Officer named 'Sam', refer to breeds of dogs that the people do own and states that they were on the road and unregistered.
All of which is false. Hastings District Council would like to hear from anyone else who has received forms noted as being from the fictitious 'Sam'.

Hi there,
Well, I have a new one for you. My work desk at home is in a lovely sunny spot. Papers sometimes sit in a 'same spot' for a long long time! Because it is is a sunny spot, I have a little mirror on a stand there (great in the sun as I can see what the hang I am doing with … View moreHi there,
Well, I have a new one for you. My work desk at home is in a lovely sunny spot. Papers sometimes sit in a 'same spot' for a long long time! Because it is is a sunny spot, I have a little mirror on a stand there (great in the sun as I can see what the hang I am doing with those tweesers and mascara!) ... I picked up a little booklet made of paper that has been on the 'to do ' list for far too long and I noticed it had a brown mark...didn't think anything of it, till a few days later I looked at it properly and it is a burn mark!! I looked at it a while, said to my husband, "hey does this look like a burn mark to you?" He said, "Definitely".....hmmmm I thought a while and then I reckon it was the mirror that has two sides possibly tilting with the direct sun on it, and burning the paper. Far fetched?? Dunno but seems to be the only thing that makes any sense...moved mirror to less sunny spot and will bring it out when I need it. ...Imgaine that, fire started my make up mirror!! YIKES. I doubt anyone else has their mirror on their desk, but maybe you have one in the sun... just thought I should let you know so you don''t make my mistake. Great weekend out there, have a good one everyone.

I know that this discussion has been brought up in the past - I think it is rude, inappropriate and lazy when walking your dog down the road, to put your bag of dog crap in someone else's EMPTY wheelie bin!!!

Why should I have to put up with the smell of your large dog's crap for the next week!!! If the wheelie bin was still full and it was waiting to be emptied I have no problem with it as it would have been taken away that same day and I would never have had to see/smell it. I pay for my wheelie bin for my own use, not yours!! If I do ever find out who it was don't worry I will return the favour!! Perhaps think next time as I doubt you would be pleased if someone did the same thing to you!! At least one good thing, you actually picked up your dogs crap unlike other owners walking down Joll rd that just let their dogs crap where ever and leave on other peoples front lawn!!

It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?
Neighbourly's own Sarah Moore has started studying te reo Māori follow her journey here.
