Our Coordinator at Hastings District Council recently sent us this snap from a get together with residents from a new suburb who are keen to get Neighbourhood Support up and running.

To gauge interest, he hosted a free barbecue at a park with the support of their local New Zealand Police to bring neighbours together to discuss setting it up. Every group is different in how it chooses to operate. Our policy is whatever works best for your area!

How much water do you use?

Water flows so freely from our taps that we don’t give it a second thought. Every drop has been on an incredible journey from the water source to the treatment plant, several reservoirs and pipes.

This means tap water is precious, so we’re encouraging Aucklanders to use water wisely.

Famous Thai restaurant Mai Thai to close as CRL and coronavirus outbreak bites

Brian from New Lynn

Mai Thai, which opened for business in 1989, has been steadily losing customers since the CRL works began - but owner Bow Manoonpong says the sharp drop in tourist numbers was "the straw that broke this camel's back". The Restaurant Association said many restaurant owners are now in "desperate situations" with many facing temporary closures. Mai Thai is the second longest running Thai eatery in the city, with the oldest being Red Elephant on Khyber Pass Rd - previously known as Chang Thong - which started a year earlier. Manoonpong said the restaurant, famous for its pad thai noodles and tom yum goong, will shut its doors for the last time at the end of April. "It was such a difficult and painful decision to make, but we didn't have any other choice," said Manoonpong, who started the business when she was just 26. "We have had many good memories here, and Mai Thai is happy to have been the pioneers in bringing authentic Thai cuisine to Aucklanders." Mai Thai has won the Thai Select award for the past 15 years, and queues to get into the 160-seater restaurant were a common sight in the past. The restaurant has hosted former Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra and her officials during her visit to New Zealand, and has been regarded as the "official venue" for dinners by visiting Thai delegations and officials. But since works began for the city rail link, the once bustling Albert St had been turned into a massive construction site. Recent travel and immigration restrictions due to the virus also meant tourists and international students have almost vanished in recent weeks. "When tourists stopped coming there was no way we could survive, and since our lease was also up for renewal we thought this was time to say goodbye," Manoonpong said. "I problems started with the CRL, but I think the coronavirus situation is what broke this camel's back." In its last month of operation, Mai Thai will be donating $2 from each main dish it sells to Starship Hospital as a way to thank Aucklanders for their support. Restaurant Association chief executive Marisa Bidois is calling on Kiwi locals to continue dining out or risk losing more ethnic restaurants. Two fine dining Asian eateries that opened last year, Red Wall 1939 at the Parnell Rose Garden and Epicer by Michelin-star chef Manjunath Mural on Ponsonby Rd, have also closed down. "We are fielding a number of calls from business owners in desperate situations, asking for advice as they face temporary closure. Many of these calls are coming from our ethnic restaurants," Bidois said. "These restaurants are struggling on two fronts; a lack of international tourists particularly from China where group bookings in Chinese restaurants are common during the summer period and also from local diners staying away for fear of being exposed to the virus." Bidois said the association had in the last two weeks received calls from Chinese, Indian, Thai, Italian and also Iranian restaurants which seemed to be the most affected. "These businesses are feeling largely unheard. We are doing all we can to assist with our free emergency membership to businesses that need it," she said. "We enjoy a vibrant and diverse dining scene in New Zealand and we want to see that continue so we urge local diners to continue to dine out."

Bible Prohecy Seminar Each Sunday 6.45pm Starts Tonight

Christadelphians New Lynn

There are remarkable prophecies found in the Bible, and nowhere else in the world.

There are no other writings, no other books, no other human pronouncements which can even begin to compare with the Bible. But the Bible tells us that Jesus was the Son of God; the things he said are preserved for us in the Gospels of the New Testament. Together with the teachings of his inspired apostles Peter, John and Paul, they reveal to us truths we cannot know otherwise. They warn us of the reality of death; they explain why the Gospel is “the good news”, “the power of God unto salvation” (Romans 1:16).
They encourage us with the promise of a lasting life in the new order which Christ will establish when he comes. That is why we ought to be reading the Bible. It can make the vital difference to us between the hopelessness of death and the confident hope of everlasting life.

Careful reading of the Bible will convince us that God exists, that He is in control, and that He uses prophecy to tell us His Plans. He calls us to be disciples of His Son. The Bible is the book for us. We do well to pay attention to what it says.

Know Your Dentures

Dentic Denture

An affordable option to give you that Hollywood smile you’ve always dreamed of, giving you a major boost in your confidence and self-esteem. Here Dentic Denture Clinic aim to answer a few commonly asked questions to help you understand more about dentures.

1) When should I replace my dentures?
Over the time, you may find your dentures become loose and ill-fitting as your gum resorbs and shrinks. Difficulty in chewing and frequently experiencing tired and sore gum are symptoms that indicate your denture is due for a replacement.

2) I plan to have teeth removed but don’t want to seen without teeth, what should I do?
Immediate dentures are made prior to teeth removal so that on the day of your extractions your missing teeth can be instantly replaced with a denture.

3) I have a few missing teeth, I’m not sure if I need dentures?
A common misconception is that you need to lose all your teeth before getting dentures. However, there are types of dentures that only replace a few missing teeth too.

4) I recently broke/ lost my dentures, do you provide quotes?
Dentic Denture Clinic offers same-day repairs. However, if your dentures cannot be repaired, Dentic provide free Work and Income (WINZ) and insurance quote at no obligation

To inquire, please contact Dentic Denture Clinic at 09 948 2202 or visit the clinic at 201 Taylor Street, Blockhouse Bay, Auckland for a free consultation with no obligation.

What are you waiting for, it’s time to smile.
