Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

Parts of the North Island are expected to be hit by heavy rain and severe gales tomorrow, as Cyclone Fili reaches New Zealand. MetService has issued a severe weather warning, and we’re bracing ourselves for the possibility of outages across the network.

Be sure to keep mobile phones charged and ensure you have a car charger for your devices so you can keep in touch and keep informed. It also may pay to have a torch handy (they are safer than candles which can be a fire hazard) and have a gas bottle topped up for cooking.

Civil Defence Northland has good guidelines for being prepared, staying safe, and putting together an emergency survival and getaway kit here: nrc.govt.nz/civildefence.

REWARD $5000... REWARD $5000... REWARD $5000...
Tonight marks 23 weeks since Skoota went missing from the property on Daroux Drive Waipapa.
Skoota is a Foxy X Jack Russell , 10YO and 10 months .

If you know where SKOOTA is - Do the right thing.

He is mainly white with a brown spot on his back by his tail and has a fading brown face and ears because of his age.
We want him back with his whanau and the people who love him.
We owe Skoota to keep looking for him, the same way he will look for us for the rest of his life.
If you know something or someone who has Skoota just contact us.
From tonight there is a $5000.00 reward for his safe and unconditional return, no questions asked.
We have been dealing with crooks, idiots for the last 5 months ... so do not even try your chance and waste our time if you do not have Skoota.
We know our boy so well (we had him for 10 full years) that we will not be mistaken.
So if you have him just do the right thing.

Hi,
I have a beautiful mid-sized, 12 month old black lab/staffy cross who is just gorgeous.
The neighbours dog of her previous owners used to visit her most days & they would play & I think she's really missing that.
My friends & family with dogs have small dogs & she needs one a similar size who is happy to play with but not super excitable & hyper.
It would be good for both of them, so if you have a mid-sized doggy who would love a doggy playdate, please get in touch. 027 5141 394
Cheers, Jo :-)
