hi im looking for a small tv or somesort of " device or thing" (im terrible with computer langage ha ha ha) it fror a realy poor and lonely elderly lady, who would like something small like i described , so she can watch a movie, and if it has a usb conection included, i could help her, by putting some nice documentries from her time 1940s on it so she can watch those as well. it would open up her world a little i feel, so i told her that i was going to hunt for something like i described, but the items i looked at, are all so expencive and far to complicated for her, so if there is anyone who has a SIMPLE item that can play a dvd and has a usb conection, please let me know, it would have to be cheap, as she is poor but i told her that i would help her financially, out of my own pocket or do a trade with some one for it, and she was so unbelieveble gratefull for that. and would pay me back (which ofcourse i refused lol ) she does not mind if its old, as long as she can watch something that interests her. she hardly leaves the house as she is frail and scared of falling somewhere on the street and than she would have a enourmous ambulance bill to pay ( which would leave her pennyless even more ) so please.......ask around or if you spot something LET ME KNOW A.S.A.P. thank you kindly my phone number is 02108375656 leave a message TEXT OR VOICE if im unable to anwer my mobile, and i will get back to any calls regarding this subject, as i feel she needs and certainly deserves it.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

Discovery of remains could answer one question but leave more
It’s been more than 900 days since Alvina Smith last saw her partner Shane Edwards - standing at the kitchen sink doing dishes.
Now, if human remains found near a Tokoroa creek turn out to be his, it’ll resolve at least one of her many questions.
