lost and found

Helen from Wakefield

To the person who lost their Double Brown beer can sometime this last week...……...I found it lying in front of my letter box! Clearly visible so it was hard to miss! You are welcome to come pick it up any time! I am sure you have been worried about your missing beer can. Perhaps because it 'accidentally' fell out of your car, perhaps it all of a sudden 'flew' out of your open car window, wanting to see more of the world! Of course you are aware just like every New Zealander that lost cans like yours are spoiling our Green and Clean image and are polluting our world, so of course you would like to come pick it up so you can dispose of it the right way! As for all the 'lost' Take away coffee cups, candy bar wrappers, empty water bottles and plenty of boozy cans and bottles that I regularly pick up from the Neudorf road berms......they are still waiting here to be picked up by their rightful owners! By the way......drinking alcohol while driving is frowned upon here in New Zealand. Just so you know. You are welcome.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Do you think changes need made to the current process for building consent? Share your thoughts below.
