Have you started a new craft, or returned to an old one during this pandemic?

Carly Gooch Reporter from The Nelson Mail

Craft stores around the region are seeing more customers come through their doors and ordering online as people reach for hobbies to keep them busy. Knitting is seeing more people pick up the needles, while the need for face masks is seeing others take to sewing. Have you picked up a new craft since Covid hit our shores, or maybe you've reignited a craft you hadn't done for years? Let us know what you've been up to and where you go for your supplies.

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.
