Handle attachment needed

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Does anyone know where I could find a replacement handle attachment for a cordless vacuum cleaner?
2 of the clip in pins have broken off so it won’t stay in place.

Woolworths online issues

Barbara from Raureka

Hi. I am interested if any neighbours have had a problem with Woolworths deducting your online order payment from your credit card and then losing the order and making it so hard to get them to give the money back. They do eventually but it can take up to 7 days for them to refund your money … View moreHi. I am interested if any neighbours have had a problem with Woolworths deducting your online order payment from your credit card and then losing the order and making it so hard to get them to give the money back. They do eventually but it can take up to 7 days for them to refund your money because they blame the bank for holding it up. To me its theft because you are short in my case $200 that is for groceries until they refund the money. The person I spoke to at the bank to see if they could help said it had happened to them as well. This is the second time it has happened to me now. Not acceptable.

Do you know how to give way in an emergency? 🚨

The Team from New Zealand Police

We’re here to remind you about what to do when you see, or hear, an emergency services vehicle responding under lights and sirens. When seconds count, it can save lives.

We’re here to remind you about what to do when you see, or hear, an emergency services vehicle responding under lights and sirens. When seconds count, it can save lives.

We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.

Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.
