The Mana Singles Stir - SOS Party FIJI
Being single can be hard at times especially when it comes to a holiday, but Fiji's Mana Island Resort is coming to the party and will be hosting a three day Mana SOS. The resort wants to encourage clients who may not have a significant other to make new friends, relax and enjoy the island way. The SOS - Single on Single party takes place 10-13 November 2019 and packages start from $1400 per person twin share - this is so that 2 single friends can still travel together if they so wish. After all, the idea is to meet NEW PEOPLE who are also single. Included in this deal are three nights accommodation, daily buffet breakfast and lunch, a special dinner, entertainment, cocktails, a kava ceremony and activities. SINGLE PERSON PRICE is from $1770. Other features of the resort include the Mana Spa offering four treatment rooms and a menu tailored to healthy and holistic approach. There are also five restaurants, four bars, two pools, a sports hub, boutique shop and a dive centre. This price does not include airfares or transfers but don't worry I can easily arrange these for you. And yes, in case you are wondering I have stayed at Mana Island and can say that this island has been a firm favourite of mine for many years!
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
