Elton John Tickets

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Well, that was a shame. I am sure many of us just waited in line for a very long time to get the pre-sale tickets to Elton John and missed out after waiting for 90 minutes. Can't win em all!

I am sure many of us just waited in line for a very long time to get the pre-sale tickets to Elton John and missed out after waiting for 90 minutes. Can't win em all! If anyone got any spare tickets for General Admission, please let me know. Some people may have doubled up if friends were also trying to get them for the group. .... I was on the right place before 9:01 and had thousands in front of me.. tickets went on sale at 9am. Far out, that is popular! On the bright side, I did remember my password for the pre-sales and was worried I might not get that part right!

Poll: Should smoking in cars with children be illegal?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Do you support the ban on smoking and vaping in cars with children?

The Government intends to make it illegal to smoke and vape in vehicles when people younger than 18 are inside. But police say it would be dishing out fines those who could least afford to pay them. To read more, click here

Marlee is a Golden cavoodle looking for a new forever home. She is a 3 year old first generation cavoodle and has a beautiful nature. Loves people and great with children. Always looking for cuddles. Very soft nature and just wants to please. No bad habits and loves to run! Runs well off road without the lead and always comes back when called.

Murphy is a shitzu/Maltese dog how is 3 1/2 years old. He is very cruzy and loves to be near you. Is amazing with the elderly and also young children.

Both dogs are in good health and have no medical conditions. They have both been de-sexed. All vaccines up to date. Has had regular vet checks. They are slim built dogs and not big eaters.

I am really sad to have to find a new home for my dogs. Due to work conditions I need to sadly say goodbye. They need to be with a home that has people there most of the time. Not suitable for a working owner who is not home for long periods of time. Would fit into a busy family really well. Would also cope with an elderly owner.

They have been brought up together but in the right home I would be willing to separate them.

If you are interested please phone me on 0274170671 or email me jcooper@outlook.co.nz

There's nothing worse than a soggy sammy. The trick to keeping kids interested in eating their lunch (and stopping yourself getting bored making it) is mixing it up with variations on a theme that you know they already love.

So instead of a plain ham and cheese sandwich on sliced bread, try folding slices of ham and cheese into wedges of crunchy baguette or a soft bap. Save time and stress by using Mainland’s convenient sliced cheese – available in Edam, Tasty, Colby and Swiss to suit your family’s taste.

Head to mainland.co.nz for some quick and easy cheesy ideas.
