He thinks he may have dropped it while out on his mobility scooter. If anyone has found a wallet in the Flagstaff/Rototuna area can you please contact me and let me know. We don’t care about any cash within the wallet but we do want the cards within the wallet ie: drivers license and Super Gold card etc. Thanks so much

Bring a can of food into your local Resene owned ColorShop and you can swap it for a Resene testpot*!
Every can of food you donate means you save on your testpot purchase (save up to $5.60 on an 80ml testpot) while also helping provide disadvantaged Kiwis with food parcels when they need them most.
We'll donate every item you bring in to The Salvation Army local foodbanks and other community foodbanks.
So start gathering up those cans and bring them into your local Resene owned ColorShop.

Riding a motorcycle or scooter inevitably carries more risk than driving a four-wheeled vehicle. And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)

And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)
If you worry about their safety, there is something you can do: encourage them to take Ride Forever coaching, provided (and heavily subsidised) by ACC. It's delivered by experts and it works, as Simon Gotlieb's story shows. Neighbourly members can book a FREE Ride Forever course before 31 March using promo code NEIGH18 over here.

Sure, the passports.govt.nz website provides guidelines for submitting photos and there is a jovially ‘hip style' video which paints an "oh too easy" simplification on how to avoid the errors that eventually my attempts have been rejected for. It seems to accentuate my inability to be successful big time. Once rejected, each critique offers little suggestion as to “how to fix" the attempts being made for a subsequent resubmission. One critique even implied that a colour photo i had submitted was black and white. Subsequent submissions have then included different rejection comments that could also have applied to earlier submissions.
My choice to submit an online application is aimed precisely to achieve the goal of using the internet to save travel and expense of passport renewal, lifelong learning and staying connected in a digital world as a pensioner. Undertaking tasks online should be a breeze but I am finding this task not so simple at all. Surely there could be a template provided with instructions of how to set multiple phones or cameras to achieve the desired aspect ratio, pixel size and light intensity? I have a 20megapixel Sony xperia smartphone which takes impressive photos - but this assignment has almost got me stumped. Relevant comments would be appreciated.
I will withhold my far from friendly looking attempts at photo submission meanwhile.

We know that great foster care is about more than qualifications and job titles; it’s having life experience, strength, empathy and the will to provide children with a safe home.
