Sameer Anwar, then aged six, was playing with Lego during the summer of 2018-19 when he started crying and saying he had sniffed a piece up his nose.
His parents, mum Afshan and dad Mudassir, had Sameer blow his nose, but nothing came out. They also couldn’t see anything when they looked into his nostrils.
Then on Saturday, his family was stunned to see the Lego piece come out of Sameer’s nose when he blew his nose. Read more about Sameer's strange tale here.

The Kmart store recently closed in the mall and a spokesperson said on Tuesday they had been unable to find a temporary site as planned. Staff would be redeployed, and otherwise would face redundancy, the spokesperson said. Kmart has been in the city for 23 years.
Smiths City on Tuesday confirmed its move to the site previously occupied by Kmart.
Earlier this year The Warehouse announced it would be closing nine stores across the country, including its Dunedin central store, which will now become a “dark store”, used only for filling online orders.

I must admit I have only recently set up a comfortable work station where I sit in a proper chair with my laptop at a desk (it's actually a hall table that no longer graces the entryway - function won over form). The "desk" isn't large enough for a plant but the large window overlooks my beloved garden.
Prior to this I was sitting on the floor with my laptop at the coffee table. Serendipity saw it make a great wee spot for zoom meetings with fantastic lighting and a visually pleasing background however it was horrible for other work tasks. I was forever having to change positions as limbs and butt cheeks went numb followed by pins and needles as the circulation returned only for other bits to go numb until I moved again. I made it work for a few months.
I'm not sure work attire is necessary for me. I love the comfort of sportswear, I start the day with a beach walk and my best productive work time is after the evening meal. I love to sit at my laptop and get a bunch of stuff done during this "down" time.
