All retailers, ie not just supermarkets, will no longer be able to sell or give away single-use plastic shopping bags after this date. To read more, click here.
Do you support the single-use plastic bag ban? How will the ban affect your life?
Have you already adapted to a plastic bag-free life or will this mean big changes in your household? What are your tips and tricks for ensuring the ban doesn't cause havoc when you hit the shops?

Council will trial phasing the traffic lights on Bealey Ave so traffic gets a clear run down the length of the street, to reduce noise from things like stopping and accelerating, revving and burn-outs.
Do you think this will stop boy racers from revving loudly? Tell us in the comments below (please write NFP if you don't want your comments published).

Is it a vespula wasp (German or common) or a paper wasp? Find out the difference here.

The Oxford Rural Number 1 water scheme – supplying homes around Thongcaster, Woodstock and Domain roads near Oxford – previously took water from the Waimakariri River. The district council put affected residents on a boil water notice after E coli was found in the water supply in January.
The water is now sourced from a 105 metre-deep well in McPhedrons Rd, which yields enough clean water to supply the current scheme and meet predicted growth over the next 50 years.
Resident Erica Willoughby says the community is thrilled to have their water back.
"It has been a long time of having to buy drinking water and using water collected from a rain water tank for showers, but now the water coming out of the tap is great."
MAKE A WILL! Especially if you don't already have one.

REALLY URGENT - if you want to include step-children or whangai, or if you have repartnered or separated, or (males) if there could be other children you don't know about or don't want to know about, or if you don't have children and don't want your distant relatives to be the beneficiaries if you and your partner are both killed in the same tragic accident....
Answer the questions, download the Word document, print it, and sign it in front of two adults who are not beneficiaries in the will. (Confession time - we are selling it, but we didn't write it. We've tried it out and it's okay although there are bits we would tweak if we were writing it from scratch.)
