Proposed new bottle store in Ensign St Halswell
Just browsing and noticed that there is an application for a new 'BottleO' bottle store at 29 Ensign Road, which is right opposite the medical centre there. I go down there sometimes and this appears to be a very quiet residential street. I suspect locals might not want a liquor store open there 14 hours a day. Anyone interested in objecting to this, please let me know and we can get the team at Community Law to provide some free support. The closing date is 17 August so action needed fast!

Response to regifting presents
My mind tends to wander:
I do not see any problem with regifting it back to the person who gave it, they obviously liked it. In fact, that might work out well as you buy the present you want, then gift it to someone you know who will gift it back.
Perfect, no decision needs to be made about Xmas presents
