Heads Up: Canterbury Bus users
This afternoon our bus driver told us that as from Monday 6th Dec all Canterbury bus timetables will run to the Saturday timetable until further notice. Guestimate at least next three months!
For those of us who rely on buses to meet their work time schedule it could mean a change in bus route or much earlier/later time change! Let's hope our place of work can be flexible/understanding.
I will ask for confirmation at the bus Exchange tomorrow on my way to work and express my concern that we have not been given a reminder or notice of this change in plenty of time to explore alternatives if necessary.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
Addictive Eaters Anonymous
After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
