Lost Jetski seat
Hubby has lost the seat off our Jetski somewhere between the BP Horotiu and Te Kowhai Village on Sunday 26 Feb, around 6.00pm. After filling the Jetski at the pump, he forgot to put the seat back on and left it sitting on the rear platform of the JetSki. Despite searching along the roadside not long after realising his oversight we have not been able to locate the seat. If you have seen it or picked it up and not sure where it belongs we'd love to hear from you. Sadly no more Jetskiing until the seat is found. Thanks, phone Hubby who's not very pleased with himself on 021 723375.

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

-
14.5% ... It is complicated
