The man pulled into their driveway after the children, put his lights on full-beam, reversed and fled. The mother also believed the same van pulled into their driveway again during the night. Police say they are aware of series of suspicious approaches in the Belmont area and are making inquiries.

I am looking for someone to pull my acmena hedge out of the ground. I have seen this done with a tractor using a chain around each trunk then lifted vertically straight up. The hedge is 20m long, with 23 trunks to pull out of the ground (15-20cm diameter each). The hedge is only 1.5m high.

The hedge is 20m long, with 23 trunks to pull out of the ground (15-20cm diameter each). The hedge is only 1.5m high. Any recommendations most welcome.
When they say ‘life begins at 40’, it means being finally settled down with life and having more time to enjoy your interests and hobbies.
Hope is here. Hope for one and all. Hope for you.

Held at Takapuna Bar (2a Anzac St) - starts from 7:30pm Tuesdays. All ages/experience, it's a general open mic night and has some talented regulars going till late, but thought it was worth letting people know its youth friendly early in the night (with guardian), as we often have a few and some are really talented. It's a good chance to get some performance experience too. Free entry for all.
