Remember dogs and cats can't just change their stomach and sleep clocks in a few minutes like we are forced to do, to stay with the status quo.
So for the next few days sympathise and explain it again, again, again.

"Look at the time on the wall and DON'T LISTEN TO YOUR STOMACH".
This time I am going to throw a cover over the wall clock and tape over the digital oven clock. I'm sure one of ours reads the wall clock, the other one just has two settings - sleep and eat, sleep and eat, sleep and eat so daylight saving (an oxymoronic name, night light saving doesn't get a look in.) always disappears in the twinkling of an eye. The best thing is it brings the election drama performances finality that much closer. Cheers all. ps they didn't have the stupidity of daylight saving when this photo was taken.
We can all appreciate a good family cat but cats aren't known for toeing the line. New Zealand currently has no national cat management plan, allowing domestic and stray cats to roam and breed as they please.

New Zealand currently has no national cat management plan, allowing domestic and stray cats to roam and breed as they please. This can lead to the death of native species, not to mention creating nuisance for neighbours. Do you think some laws should be in place for our feline friends?

Speed limits on vast chunks of Christchurch roads will drop to 30 or 40kph - and some to even 10kph - under a new city council proposal to improve safety.

The existing 60kph speed limits on main roads like Memorial Ave, Aldwins Rd, Linwood Ave and Blenheim Rd could also be dumped in favour of new 50kph limits.
The proposals feature in Christchurch City Council’s draft Safer Speed Plan, released for public consultation on Monday.

It's an intimate documentary series that gives us a peek into the lives of a Māori community here in the rugged Te Tai ō Poutini region of the South Island. What sets it apart is its authenticity, showcasing their deep connection to the land and their dreams for the future. The Arahura River, flowing through their ancestral lands with its revered pounamu, plays a central role. It's a show that'll truly move you – don't miss it !
West Coasters – Mane Monday 7.30pm on Whakaata Māori or streaming on Māori+

It was the school holidays and traffic had been particularly heavy.
Traffic and road safety are still big talking points in Christchurch. On Monday, the city council proposed dropping speeds on vast chunks of Christchurch roads to 30 or 40kph - and some to even 10kph - to improve safety.
