Telecommunications are an integral part of our lives, so when things go wrong it can be frustrating. Do you prefer to keep tight lipped, or are you willing to speak up?

The Telecommunications Dispute Resolution service, or TDR for short, is here to help. It’s ok to complain and we encourage you to speak up and raise issues early.

For phone and internet disputes, talk to your provider first and give them a chance to sort it. If it remains unresolved or if you need some extra help, you can talk to TDR – your free and independent complaint service.

To get in touch or find out more, visit www.tdr.org.nz or freephone 0508 98 98 98.

He loved art and painted himself. He referred to many Victorian and other paintings in his novels. I collected these images when writing my PhD 'From the Eccentric to the Essential: a study of Hardy's imagery and his debt to the visual arts.'
I'm downsizing and it seems a shame to throw out this valuable material. It took 2 years and a trip to Europe to collect.
Free to a good home! Collect from Sarsfield St, Herne Bay.

Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.
