"If you can work from home or from a non-central location, or start work later in the day, we recommend you do so. More updates here.

Speed reductions on around 700 Auckland roads will be decided this afternoon.
Some of the dangerous roads considered for the reductions include Dairy Flat Highway, Whitford Rd, Hobson St and Karangahape Rd.
People are divided on whether reductions should be enforced. What are your thoughts?

Apparently, anyone now who has got Plasterboard or Stuck O houses, if you want to sell your house, the banks won't let you sell your house because of the Plasterboard or Stuck O that is around and outside of your house. Not sure if this is New Zealand issue or maybe just Auckland, not sure on the exact details though.
The picture here is just an example of what a plasterboard or Stuck O is like.
Matt
Has anyone got further ideas or more in detail about Plasterboard houses and why banks can't sell with this material?

2 Shallots
100 ml White Wine
600 ml Chicken Stock
150 gr Peas

Filling - Fish
Mix oyster, shallot, chives, mayo and zest. Put into pipping bag. Portion the fish into 90 gm pieces, preferably triangles. Cut a pocket into the pieces and fill with the oyster mix.
Hollandaise
Wisp a sabayon in a bain-marie with yolk, vinegar and salt. Add butter little by little while whipping. Season at the end.

Break the beans out of the pods by pushing it through the shell. Blanch the beans for 10 seconds and squeeze the inner bean out of the skin.

Sautee shallot in a large based pot. Deglaze with the wine, then add stock. Bring it to boil and add the peas and bean pods. Cook for 2 mins and strain. Spread the green stuff on the tray and cool it down. When cold, blend it all. Strain and season. Add 125 g butter per 500 ml.
At Service
Bake the fish at 80 degrees for 16 minutes.
Add the beans and peas to the hollandaise with a bit of fine cut chives.
Spoon the hollandaise in the base on a large serving bowl.
Put the fish on top and garnish with pea feathers.

Hi Neighbours, Auckland Transport has brought in most of the 700 speed limits cuts it had proposed in rural and city and town centres. A new survey shows strong public support for the safety move. Do you back it ? Read the article below.

***A massive fire has broken out at the SkyCity convention centre in Auckland's central business district.
***Smoke can currently be seen billowing from the centre, blocking weather cams and blowing across the wider city.
*** We understand the fire was started by a blow torch. However, this has not been confirmed.
***Witness reports suggest the fire has not yet been controlled but more than 20 firetrucks are at the scene, including one brought in from Hamilton.
***A SkyCity spokesperson says a crisis meeting is underway. The company's first priority was ensuring the safety of workers, something reiterated by Fletcher Building, which is constructing the centre.
***Auckland Transport is stressing that people should avoid the area. Multiple roads around the scene have been closed.
