Amazing generosity

Natasha from Glendowie

Yesterday as my Mum went to pay for her groceries at Pak n Save in Botany the lady behind her in the queue pushed her hand away and tapped her own card, paying for my Mums groceries! Mum was rather confused and wasn’t sure what had happened… at 85 she is not on any social media so had no idea of the ‘pay it forward’ concept. She stuttered out a thank you to the lady and was a little overwhelmed by it all.

I don’t know who this lady is but I wanted to post in the hopes this might get back to her.

You are amazingly generous and kind, thank you so much. You’re an inspiration and a reminder that there are some beautiful people in the world and I hope someday someone will pay it forward for you.

Merry Christmas everyone x

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
