Doug finds family at Ryman

Diana Isaac Retirement Village

Not all Ryman residents can claim viral internet sensation status – but Patrick Hogan Retirement Village’s Doug Lineham sure can!

Not all Ryman residents can claim viral internet sensation status – but Patrick Hogan Retirement Village’s Doug Lineham sure can!

It was during the live televised name reveal for Ryman Healthcare’s new Cambridge village on TVNZ’s Breakfast that presenter Matty McClean happened upon Doug.

The resulting hilarious sequence of dry, but complimentary-to-Ryman, one-liners left the audience calling for Doug to have his own show. One fan even touted him as the next PM!

What viewers didn’t know, however, was that behind the droll exterior, Doug was dealing with the loss of his beloved wife Jan.

Council Road Marking in Early Hours.

Dave from Shirley

Why is it that we have to put up with the ineptitude of the City Council to plan their work for a more social time of the day.

The early hours of this morning (03:30am) I was awoken by a cacophony of noise as the Council Contractors chose to carry out road marking around Sanctuary Gardens. It seems that they can waste their time and money on road marking that was perfectly adequate prior to their early morning escapade. Maybe they should have spent the money more wisely repairing the pavements around the area which are breaking up due to tree roots pushing up the pavement. Did we vote in this council? and they want to increase our rates to pay for their incompetency?
