Hey neighbours!

Here’s a fun one — the same material NASA created to cushion astronauts in space is now helping Kiwis get their best sleep ever.

It’s called Tempur, and it’s not your average mattress. The TEMPUR® material gently adapts to your body, easing pressure points and giving you that “floating on air” kind of comfort.

We’ve put together a simple guide to help you find the perfect one for your sleep style. Check them out here: beds4u.co.nz...

So if you’ve been mattress-hunting, maybe it’s time to check out the brand that started in space. Pop into your nearest Beds4U store and feel the Tempur difference for yourself — your back (and your dreams) will thank you.

Police are seeking witnesses in relation to a man who was located unconscious in Auckland CBD last week.

At about 4.14am on Saturday 27 September emergency services were called after a man was found unconscious on the corner of Pitt Street and Karangahape Road. The male received significant injuries and was transported to hospital in a critical condition.

Detective Senior Sergeant Rebecca Kirk, Auckland City CIB, says Police are working to establish the full circumstances of what occurred, and if anyone was responsible for the man’s injuries. “We know there were several other members of the public who were in the area at the time, and we are hoping they have valuable information to share. There were also two potential witnesses who may have spoken to ambulance officers at the scene, and we would really like them to get in touch.”

If you can help, please use our 105 service and quote file number 250927/4761.
