Trailer Stolen
Hi My Single Axel Gray Home Built Trailer Plate number 73QJM was stolen off my front lawn at Velma Crescent Nawton on Friday the 3/9/21 at exactly 11.20pm as one of the neighbours caught it being towed off on there cctv. It was full of rubbish with a huge blue tarp laying across it. Please keep an eye out for it or if you have any info please message me as I just want the trailer back as it was my dads trailer that he built himself and it was his pride n joy and it was one of the last things I had of his so it has great sentimental value to me that can't ever be replaced. The picture I have put up is the only ones I could find for it.
What workplace change would you like to see most?
This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
Do you feel that we have reached the ideal in working environments yet? What rights are you passionate about relating to employment? Share your thoughts!
Poll: Do you think Hamilton's becoming a tourist destination?
City officials believe Hamilton has come of age as a standalone tourist destination, with attractions that have the potential to bring in more cash and ease the fiscal burden on ratepayers.
It’s been just over a month since Hamilton Gardens started charging visitors and plans are afoot at Hamilton Zoo to be more visitor friendly, despite figures showing visitation has already increased by 65% over the past four years.
Do you think Hamilton's becoming a tourist destination? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
