That city wide power cut ...
Can anyone recall on what day we had the city wide power cut? It would appear that there was a surge connected to that: first the chlorine generator for my swimming pool packed a sad, then my computer's power supply literally exploded with a loud bang and a cloud of smoke and then our water pump died as well, due to a melted capacitor in the motor. All within 3-4 days.
The water pump repair man related that one of his air conditioning units and one computer there died also.
So it's time for an insurance claim, I think. But I cannot for the life of me remember which exact day the power outage happened.
Can anyone jog my memory, please?
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
