Finders is not keepers
Today while in Countdown, Anglesea St, I either dropped my phone or left it on the sled check out counter. My bad, I know! I realised as soon as I got home and returned to Countdown. The security footage was viewed. I am asking, begging in fact, for the person who picked up my phone, to hand it in please. Last activity on the Spark help forum, shows it in transit by the Rototuna cell tower at 6.29pm this evening. Please 😥 This phone has priceless photos of my grandchildren whom I won't see for a very long time. It is a Samsung Galaxy Pro5 in a rose/gold coloured case. I am still paying the phone off, which means I do not have a lot of money to buy another. The most important thing to me however, are the photos. Please be honest if you have my phone and return it to me, no questions asked.
Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
