"THE ULTIMATE GIRLS GETAWAY"
PICTURE THIS!
You and your girlfriends arrive in Bangkok, and jump on a private 90 minute flight South East to the stunning and remote island of Koh Kood. A short speedboat ride in a stunning white vessel to Thailand’s most desired 6 Star Resort, Soneva Kiri. Allow your personal Butler (Mr or Mrs Friday) to escort you to your beautifully appointed and luxurious villa. Spoil yourselves in the outdoor jungle bathrooms, dine amongst the trees, spend your days on private beaches and in the Six Senses Spa indulging in massages and Ayurveda Treatments.
Watch the sunset over the jungle across the ocean whilst you sip cocktails and wander down to our outdoor cinema for wine and popcorn. A mixture of luxury, environmentally friendly design and an authentically Thai experience will provide a holiday you will be talking about for years to come. This is the perfect escape for you and the girls, for that mid-year Winter escape. It would be remiss of us not to mention the complimentary gourmet chocolate and ice creams room, at your service. Night and day.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Jockey Taiki Yanagida’s parents pushed for manslaughter charges over fatal crash
The jockey at the centre of a crash that killed Waikato rider Taiki Yanagida had racked up 11 careless riding offences in less than three years, including earlier on the fatal day.
A coroner has now found that 28-year-old Yanagida might still be alive if fellow jockey Sam Weatherley had been stopped from riding again at that meet, instead of being given a deferred suspension that allowed him back in the saddle.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
