🍸🍷🍺Another conversation regarding purchasing alcohol🍺🍷🍸

Fiona from Henderson

So, there I was trying to decide where we could purchase some affordable alcohol for Christmas WITHOUT going to a Trust owned shop and in an area that I/we go to or through regularly.

So, there I was trying to decide where we could purchase some affordable alcohol for Christmas WITHOUT going to a Trust owned shop and in an area that I/we go to or through regularly.
We know that Countdown Mt Roskill (Stoddard Road) sell beer & wine, but can't remember if it's a Trust operation or not, I don't think it is.
The discussion wandered off into where the boundaries are for West Auckland i.e. which suburbs fall into the West Auckland catchment.
So I went to find out (see link below):
List of Suburbs in West Auckland:
Anawhata
Bethells Beach
Glen Eden
Glendene
Green Bay
Henderson
Herald Island
Hobsonville
Huia
Karekare
Kelston
Konini
Kumeu
Laingholm
Lincoln
McLaren Park
Massey
New Lynn
Oratia
Piha
Ranui
Royal Heights
Sunnyvale
Swanson
Te Atatu
Te Atatu Peninsula
Te Atatu South
Titirangi
Waiatarua
Westgate
West Harbour
Western Heights
Whenuapai
westauckland.co.nz...
Well that discovery brought on a whole new conversation regarding The Trusts.
As Mt Albert doesn't fall into this catchment, how can the Trusts put a store within Pak'nSave (New North Rd)?
Do The Trust create their own boundaries just so they can extend their revenue reach under the guise of Mt Albert Pak'nSave being close to a suburb (New Lynn or Kelston)?
Something doesn't smell right here?

Inside a West Auckland food bank in the run-up to Christmas

Josephine Franks Reporter from Western Leader

Kia ora neighbours, December is always a busy month for the city's food banks, and Glendene's Church Unlimited is no different.

Stuff visited on one of the last days before Christmas to see how they were helping as many West Aucklanders as possible have the best holiday they could.

Helping the courier karma

Fiona from Henderson

OK, this is a little bit mischievous, but I cannot be the only one sick to death with courier parcels being stolen left, right and centre, especially at this time of the year.
So, how about a little bit of payback to the actual thief?
Yes?
OK - here we go.

OK, this is a little bit mischievous, but I cannot be the only one sick to death with courier parcels being stolen left, right and centre, especially at this time of the year.
So, how about a little bit of payback to the actual thief?
Yes?
OK - here we go.
Open a courier box (or use an old one you have kept), empty it and then fill the used box up with your pets 'little brown treasures' you know what I mean, kitty litter, the dog's bombs from the back yard, your guinea pig's stuff from his cage - anything that is nasty.
Seal that box back up very carefully - making sure your name & address is not on the box - put a fake one if you have to (so there are no returns).
Then put it on your letterbox or the ground or by your front door, wherever it can easily be seen.
Someone will steal it.
Trust me, they will be doing you a huge favour by taking away this stuff and karma will be so beautiful to watch
😄😂😄😂😄
