overseas and other unwanted cellphone calls
We have received several overseas calls that indicate they are from (Australia) when we answered one of these call a male speaking with a heavy ethnic dialogue of that possibility from the Phillipines tried to sell something. Would not take NO for an answer.
We have started blocking these calls.
If in doubt don’t answer if it is important they will leave a number you should google any messages to see if the company and contact details are legitimate if not suggest you block these calls.
Never call back as there is a charge associated with this.
Any calls you get from your service providers you have not initiated yourself HANG UP.
Contact any company directly and discuss what took place.
We turn our land line volume off and use answering machine to check legitimate messages.
We hope you find this information useful.
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?
-
37.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
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!
