Thursday 11th of October just before 3pm.
Vicinity: Hastings CBD close to corner of South Hampton and Market Street.
A man apparently driving a Car towing a trailer chased another male who was walking on the footpath in Central Hastings. The driver chased the pedestrian along the road, and then got out and chased him into a house that the man ran to for protection. It is reported that the driver of the car when chasing the man into the house was holding something he was using as a weapon.
The police were canvassing the streets yesterday to ask if anyone saw anything to add to their search for the car driver.
If you saw anything that can help with their investigation, please contact the police.
I just wondered if my chance any of you were driving by yesterday and happened to notice anything that could help. You may have seen the car with the trailer and can give a description of the colour, make, model or driver etc. Sorry to report bad news, but figured it was worth a try in case someone saw something that can help.

Ear Wax can be Useful

Ear Suction Hawkes Bay

It protects the skin of the human ear canal, assists in cleaning and lubrication, and also provides some protection from bacteria, fungi, insects and water. So, in fact, ear wax is a good thing.

Ear wax is useful in other ways too!

1. In the past, ear wax was used as a lip balm. This means people stuck their fingers or tools into their ears and then smeared it on their lips.

2. Ear wax was also used as a salve or soothing ointment for puncture wounds. The 1832 edition of the American Frugal Housewife said that "nothing was better than ear wax to prevent the painful effects resulting from a wound by a nail or skewer”.

3. In the early days of publishing, ear wax was often a component of printer's ink together with other substances like urine, used to prepare pigments used by scribes to prepare illuminated manuscripts.

4. Before waxed threads became available, seamstresses often used their own ear wax to prevent the end of thread from fraying. This means that people's clothes had other people's ear wax on them, so often clothes were similar to wearable cotton swabs.

5. Modern anthropologists examine ear wax when tracking human migratory patterns. According to the University of Delaware, ear wax can reveal a range of information. Ear wax can indicate where a person's ancestry is from to the smelliness of their sweat.

Wow - those of us that produce excess ear wax are useful folks to have around! Mind you, not sure about using another’s ear wax as lip balm!
