Better still, they’re a snap to make, especially if you have ready-grated tasty and parmesan cheese from Mainland in the fridge.

For the more adventurous eaters, finish each muffin with a little wedge of Brie, Noble or Blue cheese. You might not be able to resist sneaking a couple for your own lunch!

Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.

They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.

What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

I see Stuff has followed up on my suggestion , somehow facetious keeps cropping up in my head , tracked down the real hotel and Keith Austin has written an article about it opening.
www.stuff.co.nz... . Click the link to the article ..
I know 450 to 700 mill might be beyond the ILT budget for this but perhaps if i started drinking again that might help.. ?
Amazing hotel so please take a minute ( or two ) to read the article and any donations so I can go and stay there a night or three will be gratefully received.

Since its closure, there have been plenty ideas passed around on what to do with the premises. What would you like to see happen with Anderson House?

True Detective S3 is turning out to be every bit as good as season 1 which starred Matthew McConaughey, & Woody Harrelson.

True Detective S3 is turning out to be every bit as good as season 1 which starred Matthew McConaughey, & Woody Harrelson.
Nic Pizzolatto sure knows how to spin a story and along with the cinematography probably makes this the best viewing on TV at the moment.
Mahershala Ali and British actress Carmen Ejogo along with the rest of the cast are well worth the close watch not to miss the subtle clues on offer. Plenty of suspects but I am not saying who I suspect so as not to spoil it for anyone else. For those not watching " the butler did it " is not an option.

Obviously the artist Danny Owen has done a magnificent job showcasing ethnic diversity that has grown over the last decade or so here in the Deep South . Rightfully made us proud on the National news last night and a thank you too all involved.
