Beware Countdown Cream
Bought a bottle of cream from Countdown Nelson on my way home from Berrylands. Opened it up and it was just not 'fresh' (as the label claimed) it was off. Rang the store to suggest they take it off the shelf to be offered a refund (which at $2 I could not be bothered with) and a strong reply they would not be taking it off the shelf. Accepting it might just be my one bottle but noting they had simply dozens on the shelf I suggested Bridget, the manager I was talking to, just go down and try one random bottle and if it was crook like my bottle then remove them all. Bridget was adamant she would not and told me she was too busy to deal with my complaint and hung up. If you want fresh cream this season BEWARE COUNTDOWN CREAM.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.8% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
