CBD recycling: Hi, I noticed the CBD recycling comment in Your Voice last week. There are services for other recyclables in the CBD, but businesses have to pay - it's still less to do that than to pay to dump it. More details of which services exist are on the Nelson Environment Centre's Waste Education services website http:// www.wes.org.nz/recycling-guide. Karen Driver, interim centre manTelecom Business Hub Tasman are… ager, Nelson Environment Centre.

Your Clues
Road rules: Regarding road rules, someone remind Nelson drivers that they need to indicate when turning corners. I was almost hit recently and the driver had the nerve to yell at me when he was speeding and not indicating. Nelson drivers have never been amazing but seem worse lately. And the red light means stop. (Via text). Stray cats a problem: Sooo over the strays! They keep beating my cat up but the neighbours feel sorry for them and feed the poor things. I think SPCA traps are needed. Sarah Davis.
I think it would be more suited to every second year. I'd most likely give it a go. Clinton Harvey.
Comes down to the ignorance of the cat owners dosen't it? This may have all started by having just 3-5 kittens dumped, then the unfortunate cycle starts up, they breed like rabbits, so yeah what can be done? Check with the SPCA for vouchers to have your cats 'fixed' by a vet, at no or little cost to the owner, is just one option. Sharon May Patterson.
No turn on Queen St: Can someone tell me why cars are not allowed to turn left into Queen St coming from Stoke via the deviation. I can understand all the other stuff, this I cannot figure out, no one would be held up. (Via text).
Get a dog! Brett Yates. Get better cat-proof cages for the guinea pigs and rabbits and install microchip cat doors that only let your cat inside. Natalie Street. Yes, this is my house and neighbour's and I'm sick of the cat attacking guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, dogs, children and adults at my house and other neighbour houses. Lee Alderson. The Fight 4 Victory was a huge success, would you get in the ring? Would love an opportunity to be in the ring!!! Nadia Smith.
People also dump cats in the creek that runs beside

Boxing was awesome. Awesome to see the photos. Go everyone who took part. (Via text).
Scooter gang: Did you know there is a local gang in Stoke with kids ranging from 10 to 17 year old called Stoke Scooter Gang? They can range from 4 or 5 kids in a group, to up to 25 at times. They are daunting and at times very abusive and down right nasty. Tia Andrews. Tell your community police, if it's that bad I am sure they will be on to it. Reni Wereta-Gargiulo. Yep, hubbie got photo of them throwing camellia buds at passing cars. D.j. Chandler.

Bar reference annoys: I am sick and tired of Nelson bars getting a bad name in the papers and online. The 19 year old man was not outside the back of Shark Club at all, he was at the entrance of car park between Nelson Beauty and the hairdresser. Just using a bars name again to give them a bad name. (Via text). The reference to the Shark Club came from a statement from Nelson police who attended
