Petrol has been under 2.00 for a few weeks presumably because the Kiwi had improved slightly. So how does anyone explain how Oil ( BC ) is now over US$70 . and petrol is still under 2.00 ..

ps . I have already been told 1000 times petrol is cheaper than water...
Sorry , do have to click on the pics so they enlarge to be able to understand the cartoons.

The Southern District Health Board has proposed to downgrade the Lumsden Maternity Centre from an in-patient primary birthing unit to becoming a maternal and child hub in a review of maternity services in Otago and Southland.

One would also be established at Te Anau.

But what is a maternal and child hub?

They've been referred to as a "glorified coffee group" online this week, so we approached the Southern District Health Board to find out what one is.
