Hi neighbours,

The live action remake of the children’s classic Mulan will premier at 7.30pm on Friday on the streaming service Disney+.

The film was pulled from Disney’s cinema release schedule due to the ongoing impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

Fans will have to pay $39.99 to gain “premium access” to view it, on top of the regular Disney+ subscription of $9.99/month. After several months the film will be available for free for all Disney+ subscribers.

The $440 million blockbuster was mostly filmed in New Zealand, and critics have praised the scenery.

Will you be watching the premier of Disney’s Mulan tonight from home?

A saucy rebrand brings te reo Māori to Kiwi fridges and dinner tables

The Team Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Hi neighbours,

Are you looking for a new pantry staple? A Canterbury restaurateur has launched his own te reo Māori-branded tomato sauce after boycotting another for “bastardising” the language.

Fush owner Anton Matthews has teamed up with Barkers to produce Kīnaki Tomato after removing Watties from his Christchurch restaurant because the company poked fun at Māori place names in an advertising campaign.

Matthews, who has become well-known for championing the country’s indigenous language, is proud to have te reo Māori on sauces displayed on his tables.

When he went in search of a new sauce to accompany his kaimoana (fish) and chips in January, they picked a sauce they loved, and asked the Geraldine-based condiment producer if it could collaborate on a label.

“I’m really stoked that they’ve taken a chance on us.”

2004 Chevrolet Cruze. A great car for first time drivers as it is small and compact easy for parking In tight spaces. The car comes with a very fuel-efficient 1.3-Liter engine. Comes with fold-able rear seats for extra loading space. The interior of the car has been kept tidy and in good condition. The exterior of the car has a few common minor cosmetics like light scratches around the body but nothing too major. The exterior painting of the car is faded.

WoF expired in Jun 2020. Buyer has to get the WoF done.
Registration until October 2020.

We used it primarily for commute to work in city as 2nd vehicle. After COVID-19 working from home, so not been using it much and hence selling.

For more information on the vehicle please feel free to ask.

Viewings are welcome.
