Suspecting they'd been over charged, Kim Sze asked to see the receipt after ordering breakfast at Coffee Supreme, Christchurch.

What she didn't expect was to read a strange insult targeted at her two-year-old daughter, Micah. Instead of asking for a name for the table, the receipt showed that staff had called their table "Family with the terrifying kid".

Sze said Supreme Coffee's management had "apologised profusely" after she contacted them, but she was still frustrated about how young families can be treated when they go out.

I was wondering if anyone has a cat trap that I could borrow in the first week of November? My cat Dustin has been missing for months now since May 2019.

So if anyone is able to lend us a cat trap and also a helping hand, it would be really appreciated! We really just want our Dustin back!
