Hi neighbours,
Does anyone have a bass guitar collecting dust?
I’m willing to learn to play bass.
Please do let me know if you have one that would like to get rid off!
Thank you

Please people, help us to help him. He is a good person, but has had a very hard life. Willing to pay, but can't afford much.

The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!

What you need to know:
- The alert level at Whakaari White Island has been increased after a small eruption.
- Minor volcanic eruption was seen by a vigorous steam plume above the island on Friday morning at 8.20am.
- There are no sensors on the island, so Geonet relies on webcams and satellite imagery to assess the situation.
- GeoNet shared: “Based on our limited information there were no clear indications of ash in the plume and if there was it would be unlikely to reach the mainland under current wind conditions.”
The steam plume above the island had since reverted to more normal levels.

Throughout each room of your home, there’s an opportunity for germs to spread and bacteria to grow.
That might sound pretty gross – a simple yet effective solution is to let fresh air
Let fresh air into your home
Open up your doors and windows every day, even if it’s cold. Ideally morning and night.
Mould has been linked to nasal congestion, wheezing, chest tightness, coughing, throat irritation, reduced lung function and chronic health problems.
But if you don’t want to leave your house open for a long time in the cool weather, it’s good to know that it doesn’t take much time to make a healthy difference to your home.
If you open a window widely and open a door, it can take as little as two minutes to exchange the air in that room. If you just do a lap to open up every door and window, and then turn around to do another lap to close everything up again – you have a house full of fresh air.
Keep your home fresh and healthy with this simple tips!
