Ryman’s Peace of Mind Guarantees are designed with your protection in mind, giving you the confidence to live the way you want and to embrace every opportunity.

Take Ross for example. He’s a Ryman resident who began his musical journey at the age of 65. His ‘no worries’ lifestyle has meant that ten years later, Ross plays in several bands and tours in different towns playing music on a guitar he made himself. A little certainty provides great reassurance in knowing you can pursue the things you love in retirement, without any worries.

A gaggle of geese held up traffic on the northern motorway as they found themselves stuck on the road on Thursday afternoon.

The geese entered the motorway from a lake at the Rosedale Wastewater Treatment Plant. Feathers flew as the geese headed north, before they took the nearest exit – a berm near the Greville Rd off-ramp.

The geese were in a flap when they realised they were stuck between a concrete barrier and three lanes of Auckland’s busy holiday traffic.

While the geese appeared largely unruffled after the incident, motorists were said to have had goose bumps.

Auckland Transport spends $2.6 million to monitor transit lane with 99pc compliance

Caroline Williams Reporter from North Shore Times

Auckland Transport has been criticised for spending $2.6 million on cameras to stop people illegally using Onewa Rd's transit lane, which already had 99 per cent compliance.

Auckland Transport has been criticised for spending $2.6 million on cameras to stop people illegally using Onewa Rd's transit lane, which already had 99 per cent compliance.

The ratepayer-funded organisation recently installed 68 cameras along the road, at a cost of $2.6 million, to save its staff from having to manually enforce compliance with a camera on the side of the road, which put them at risk of being abused by angry motorists.

Auckland Transport was reviewing the way it manages all the region’s special vehicle lanes, and hoped the technology would increase efficiency to have the network operating as freely as possible.

But Kaipātiki Local Board member Paula Gillon​ said it was an “extraordinary” amount of money to spend on a road where the transit lane rules were adhered to by motorists 99 per cent of the time.

While it was likely the cameras would stop people from illegally using the transit lanes, Gillon believed congestion would get worse in the normal lane, as Auckland Transport had not put forward any alternative solutions.

Me personally it is about meeting lovely people walking on B B beach with their fur babies, I have been fortunate enough whilst walking my 2 best friends, Skye my Flat Coat, Jade my Gordon Setter to have briefly met and chatted to lovely people, sad but know the dog before the owner. As we move into 2022, to the people who comment same s. t different day, look around you don’t waste energy like that be positive and yes thankful. If I had one regret it would be not having my own company to walk and talk with,laugh and enjoy life and all what it has to offer. To conclude I wish you all a very Happy and Healthy 2022. Looking forward to seeing you all next year.
Stan, Skye, Jade.
