Support Miss Pinup New Zealand Finalist (Miss Kitty Kaos)

Kirsty from South New Brighton

Hi there,

My name is Kirsty, also known as Miss Kitty Kaos.

Originally from the UK, Mr Kaos and I have been lucky enough to call Christchurch home since 2014. As a construction Quantity Surveyor, I am heavily involved in earthquake rebuild work, spending my working days stomping around building sites in hi-vis, hardhats, and steel-capped boots. It’s not until after “tools down” that my passion and love for all things vintage and retro comes out to play.

I have a strong passion for retro fashion, particularly from the 50s and 60s. Through immersing myself in the New Zealand Pinup scene I have been fortunate to meet so many lovely ladies through attending hair and makeup workshops, and seeing them at car shows and events. The last 6-12 months have seen the Pinup scene in Christchurch explode. I’m part of a group called the ‘Canterbury Pinup Belles’ who like to organise events for local charities. We recently raised $1500 for a local pre-school by organising a Rock n Roll Dance in Christchurch.

I am lucky enough to have been selected as one of the top 10 finalists for Miss Pinup New Zealand, which is held at an event in Auckland called Very Vintage Day Out on 28th October (www.veryvintage.co.nz).
I am the only one from the South Island and need your suppot.
Online voting for ‘People’s Choice Pinup’ starts today (11th September), if you are able to help me share and promote this experience and this scene, please contact me by email (misskittykaos@outlook.co.nz)

Many thanks,

Kirsty

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
