Is Your TV Rugby Ready?

Geoff Small from Geoff Small Electronics

You may have heard about the change of broadcaster for the 2019 Rugby World Cup - Sky were outbid by Spark & TVNZ and they will be broadcasting all of the action via an online app. The change means that some rugby supporters will need to upgrade to a Smart TV to be able to view all of the matches at home.
If you or someone you know needs to upgrade to a smart TV give me a call or have a look at some of the great deals on my website. I will also be posting about a different model each week with features, sizes available and my special price.
All prices include FREE Delivery, Installation and Demo in the Hastings & Napier areas.

Keep safe and happy in Hawke’s Bay these holidays

The Team from Eastern District Police

As holiday-makers enjoy their time in the sunny Hawke’s Bay, Police have advice for both locals and visitors about how to ensure we head into 2026 on a high note.

Inspector Lincoln Sycamore, Hawke’s Bay Area Commander, says he wants everyone to have a safe and enjoyable New Year in our region.
“We welcome you if you’re in Hawke’s Bay to enjoy the weather, food, and everything else our area has to offer. Respect each other, don’t overindulge and make good decisions. Don’t be ‘that person’ who ruins it for everyone.”

Staff deployed across Hawke’s Bay, to beaches, events and more

“Keep yourselves safe and look after each other,” says Inspector Sycamore.
There will be a strong Police presence in traditional holiday hotspots across our region, including our beautiful beaches.
We all have a responsibility to ensure our friends and loved ones are safe this summer, so keep an eye out and report any concerns you have.”

Visible presence on Hawke’s Bay roads: If you can’t follow road rules, expect to see red and blue in your rear-view.

Inspector Sycamore says officers will continue to be out on our roads, targeting unsafe drivers.
“Alcohol continues to be a factor in a number of crashes across the region, and we will continue to set up checkpoints and breath test drivers,” he says.
"Wear your seatbelt, don’t drink and drive, stay off your phone and make sure you’re rested."

When you’re shopping, we’ll be watching

As you flash your cash at the holiday sales, Police beat teams will be conducting routine patrols through retail areas right into the New Year.
Inspector Sycamore says officers will be checking in with local store workers and members of the community.

If you feel unsafe or have concerns about dangerous, illegal or suspicious behaviour, call Police on 111.
For non-urgent concerns you can call 105 or visit www.police.govt.nz... and report the incident online.
