As part of the airline's Black Friday flight specials, tickets will cost just over $2 (£1) plus taxes return, the airline said on its UK site. The total cost will be around NZ$355 (£178). They are available for purchase from 29 November to 3 December. Air New Zealand says tickets are on a first come, first served basis as there are only 100 available to buy. The airline announced last month that it is axing its London route via Los Angeles. It first flew the route in 1982, but said competition made the service unsustainable. The service will end in October 2020.

I wonder if WINZ will give me accommodation supplement for this place?😳

Fiona from Henderson

For this particular 2 bedroom house with 1 bathroom, I think I may have to find a few jobs to afford this place or camp out down at my local WINZ office for some serious help😄😄😄
With so many countries eyeing up New Zealand as a wonderful place to live, maybe they are targeting the … View more
For this particular 2 bedroom house with 1 bathroom, I think I may have to find a few jobs to afford this place or camp out down at my local WINZ office for some serious help😄😄😄
With so many countries eyeing up New Zealand as a wonderful place to live, maybe they are targeting the ambassador market just to get the lay of the land.
Still, 38 people have eyeballed this post on Trade Me. I think I will have competition to get this place.
P.S. Yes, I know it must be a typo, they can't be serious. That's why I posted a screen grab before they correct it 😏

Planning a visit to Taco Bell? Read this first

Josephine Franks Reporter from Western Leader

Kia ora neighbours, Taco Bell's been a long time coming to New Lynn, so we went down to the opening to see if it lived up to the hype. The verdict? Perhaps not.

Have you eaten there yet? What did you think?

Photo 2: My pink Little Miss Perfect roses (shrub bought from Bunnings, of course). =D

Photo 3: A white (or very pale purple) I-don't-know-what flower, but it is very pretty, so I thought I'd take a photo of it - it's the same as the unknown pink flowers I've photographed before, but white. =D
Photo 4: My snapdragons (I think). =D
Photo 5: My beans (all sorts) and pumpkins coming up. =D They are butternuts, I think - I planted the seeds from cut-up pumpkins I'd bought for dinner, then put the scraps (including the seeds) in the compost - YES, you can grow all sorts of pumpkin plants from these, I'm pretty sure that's how one of my previous, VERY prolifically-fruiting butternuts grew - from a seed in the compost!!!!!!!! =D So HERE'S hoping I get some this - or next - year!!!!!!!! =D
Photo 6: Some of my pumpkin seedlings. =D Butternuts, I think - my favourite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D Hehehe. =D
Photo 7: Two of my scarlet runner bean seedlings!!!!! =D Yay - I can FINALLY get them to grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D AND, what's AMAZING is that NONE show signs of rot. =O The trick is to plant them, and your pumpkins, in a raised bed WITH GOOD SOIL, and then BOTH your pumpkins AND your beans will be healthy - THIS is what I have learned from this. =D Heheheh!!!!!!!! =D
