Lady asking for ride
Just had a lady hang around our place for 10-15 minutes before we realised she was even there very unsettlingly just standing at the front door in the dark no knock at the door or ring of the door bell dog kept growling and barking so went outside she was pleading for me to give her a ride to the supermarket I told her to wait till I put the dog inside she kept talking about going in the car for a ride then our dog continued to bark in her face it didn’t seem to faze her as she stepped closer. One of the boys went outside once I got the dog inside, the lady was still there and approached the gate again and changed her story to she broke up with her boyfriend and she needs help after being told repeatedly to leave we offered to call police to help her she just stood there staring then walked down our drive way looking in the cars etc just be careful guys!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
32.5% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
67.5% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
