I bought these a while ago to replace all the single access plugs in our house - but my wife doesn't like the colour because it doesn't go with her shoes or something. I had an electrician come in recently and change them all with white plugs so no longer need these. Make an offer - I paid $130 for them.

We're all busy - so how can we get our kids out of the car on the school run?

Jonathan Milne Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Since the 1980s, the proportion of children being dropped off in a car has doubled to nearly 55 per cent. With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents. Worse, it has undermined our community cohesion: Schools can and … View moreSince the 1980s, the proportion of children being dropped off in a car has doubled to nearly 55 per cent.

Worse, it has undermined our community cohesion: Schools can and should be the hearts of our communities
.

We're backing schools to set up walking buses and other solutions, with parents and volunteers helping local kids get to class safely.
We wrote to the nation's mayors pleading with them to lower speed limits outside schools, and many have come back to us with expressions of support. We talked to well-known New Zealanders with school-aged kids, and they united behind the campaign.

You can get involved too. We know people are busy, so the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly are encouraging families to choose one day a week when they and their kids walk, scoot, cycle - even ride a horse if that's what works for you!

I've chosen Mondays as the days I'll cycle to school with my 6-year-old son. And Neighbourly has set up a special pledge page, where you can choose a day when you will try to Foot It with your kids, talk with others doing the same - and go into the draw to win one of 50 Micro scooters. www.neighbourly.co.nz...

I once had a neighbour who bought something extravagant and told me it had just gone on the 'plastic', probably not realising what that would cost.

I once had a neighbour who bought something extravagant and told me it had just gone on the 'plastic', probably not realising what that would cost.

If you owe $1000 and just pay off the 3% minimum AFTER they've added 2% interest each month, it would take 13 years and 4 months and the total paid would be $2478.68

Calculations attached. Assumes 24% p.a. and must pay at least $10 each month.

These are Matakanohi Reserve, Grantham St car park, Pine Beach and Fairfield Esplanade.

The council says path users should not enter these parks, particularly if the gates are closed.
