As the drier months set in, you’ll be seeing this water gauge quite a bit. It’s a way for metropolitan Auckland to keep an eye on daily water usage. The aim is to stay in the green and below the daily target.

If you’re on tank water, when did you last look inside your tank? If you rely on rain to keep your household taps flowing, toilet flushing or stock watered, now’s a good time to check your levels, monitor your usage and look at booking a top-up early. Secure your water future by investing in an additional tank.

It is not in the best condition, has rust spots, is missing the battery cover and the bottom half of numbers on the display seem to be on the blink. But... it is super comfortable, folds in half for easy storage and moving, and has good range of resistance. So if your not concerned about aesthetics then this would be a great buy. I have upgraded to a proper spin bike that I can stand up on so this fella is now surplus to requirements. Pickup only from Blockhouse Bay

The 36-year-old is one of 3300 New Zealanders diagnosed with breast cancer each year.
Gandry joined the Breast Cancer Foundation after enduring a full mastectomy along with months of chemotherapy and radiation.
She is backing the foundation's Splash of Pink High Tea.
Gandry will be a guest speaker at the fundraising event, held on October 31 at Titirangi War Memorial Hall.
An elegant high tea, raffles, a silent auction and music are planned for the 2pm event, hosted by Titirangi company Isometric.
Funds raised will go towards breast cancer research, patient support, education and awareness.
Also speaking will be breast cancer survivor Fay Cobbett.
Cobbett founded MyReflection, which scans women who have undergone a mastectomy to create custom breast prosthesis.
Every year, 650 people die from breast cancer.
Six per cent of New Zealand women under the age of 45 never check their breasts for changes and 37 per cent of them fail to know what to look for, a survey commissioned by the foundation revealed.
Nearly one in eight people aged under 45 said they had ignored a lump or symptom rather than getting it checked by a doctor.
Raising awareness is almost as important as the funds, Isometric co-owner Cheryl Stewart said.
"If we could spread the word and get more people checking themselves, the reality is that we'd save lives."

An English tradition, High Tea originally comprised a cuppa and a scone and was eaten in the late afternoon.
Today, a modern high tea boasts an array of finger foods and a range of boutique teas.

At this stage the arrangement is one-way, with Australians not able to travel to New Zealand (thank goodness).
To those who are seriously considering this, be warned, upon return to New Zealand you will still need to have the appropriate managed isolation booking upon return, spend two weeks in managed isolation, and pay the fee which applies to anyone who left New Zealand after August 11.

Amazingly, the majority of these prophecies have come true, and the remainder are predictions of events in the future.
In the Bible God claims to predict the future. In the book of Isaiah God says “The former things I declared of old; they went out from my mouth, and I announced them; then suddenly I did them, and they came to pass.” (Isaiah 48:3)
We read all kinds of prophecies regarding individuals—that Abraham would have a son. Did he? His name was Isaac. His grandson's name was changed to Israel. That there would be rulers like Cyrus of Persia. 100 years before Cyrus assumed the throne, his name is recorded in Isaiah 45 verse 1. Would you like to predict who the Prime Minister of New Zealand will be 100 years from today? It’s impossible. But here is the Bible giving name and country of these rulers long before they’re even born.
You are invited to come and hear some of the amazing evidence of Bible Prophecies that have been accurately fulfilled – evidences that the Bible is True and there are Prophecies yet to be fulfilled.
The Seminar Title is:
The Fundamentals of Bible Prophecy - A Divine Promise for a Better Future"

Coronation Street actor Ian Bartholomew, who plays perpetrator of domestic abuse Geoff Metcalfe, today has released the song, This Time It’s Forever, and accompanying music video to raise vital funds for domestic abuse charity Women’s Aid in the UK.
As the Youtube link seems to be blocked on here (a regular occurance now), I will leave the link to the article to where I found this wonderful musical gem which has a direct access to this wonderful song.

Why not treat yourself to a bloke’s day out for a grooming WOF? Just be wary of the barbershop – between the bay rum oil, hot towels, banter, and leather chairs, you won’t want to leave!

Bevis, a resident at Ryman’s Anthony Wilding Village, recently received a gentleman’s makeover. The day began at the barbershop where Bevis and his barber Kohl shared plenty of laughs. Next up, a personal stylist helped Bevis select clothes he looked and felt great in. Being pampered isn’t the norm for Bevis but based on his smile, we’re confident he loved every minute.
