This character is now residing in the Otorohanga area and I have been an unfortunate recipient of his deceit.

I was dumb enough to let this guy talk me into taking away a cheap car I had for sale with disclosed issues, and has not paid for it after 7 weeks (Only $400.00) after many times stating he will pay for it (I have the messenger threads all kept and screenshot to back up my claim). He spun a story of someone testing one of his cars and not returning it or being paid for it and has even registered my car in his name. He also spun a bit of a yarn about playing rugby for Wales and being involved in the tours etc. I did a little digging and came across this very interesting article. If you deal with this guy with anything for sale or offered, please be very careful. PS, please keep a look out for my car Blue 2003 Peugeot wagon [FYT841]

Adam McGrath is a folk singer stationed where ever he lands. On this tour he’ll be joined by a small but mighty rhythm section (The Roaring Days) who promise to help drive McGrath’s songs and get the hearts beating against the chest.

Tickets are $25 for adults and FREE for Students (with a paying adult). Available from The Plaza, Eventfinda and door sales will be available from 7pm on the night.

The lead singer and songwriter for the almost mythic mongrel country band The Eastern, he takes to his solo adventures with the same intensity, passion, love and humour that has given his day band a firm foothold into the hearts and minds of New Zealand. Described by Radio New Zealand and the NZ herald as a “National Treasure” McGrath’s work with The Eastern has become legendary across the many bars, lounges, halls and street corners they’ve graced in their ten year, 2000 show career. Barry Saunders from the iconic Warratahs simply described McGrath as “the truth”.

Hi neighbours,

Have you heard this trick before? A handy hack on how to open OXO cubes is causing a stir online, as it seems many of us have been doing it all wrong.

Forget crumbling up the cube after opening the silver foil packaging - it seems that packaging was actually designed to be flattened. To read more click here.

Simply open up the flaps on the side, flatten them out and then crumble the cube inside the package, turning it into a powder that's a heck of a lot easier to add to your dish.

Did you know this handy trick? Have you been opening the cubes the wrong way your whole life like the rest of us? Will this make cooking for your family a little easier? Share your thoughts in the replies below!
