Therefore, I offer 60-minute sessions that are not as in-depth, however will focus on physical or emotional challenges that may need some support or tweaking right now.
During this short consultation we will explore what you need help with at this moment, and create a remedy specific to your needs, from the range of Flower Essences and Homeobotanicals. It’s as simple as that.
Just message me if you want to book yourself in for some wellness improvement.

Ok,
So I went into town this morning.
Went to pay my parking with my $2 coin.
Hello, sign on the meter saying this meter doesn’t accept coins any more and I need to pay either with a credit card or an app.
Well, I don’t have a credit card and I don’t have a phone.
So I try another meter.… View moreOk,
So I went into town this morning.
Went to pay my parking with my $2 coin.
Hello, sign on the meter saying this meter doesn’t accept coins any more and I need to pay either with a credit card or an app.
Well, I don’t have a credit card and I don’t have a phone.
So I try another meter.
It takes my $2 but doesn’t acknowledge that it’s received my $2.
The next meter doesn’t take my money either.
So I make a note of my parking space number and walk to the council offices and say.
“ I’d like to pay for my parking, this is my number and here’s my $2”
“ oh, we don’t take parking money here , you have to put it in the meter or blah blah blah….’
“ well, blah blah blah….so I’m here to pay for my parking, this coin is legal tender and you are required by law to accept my money”
Oooh, can’t cope with this, staff scurry off and get someone from the parking dept who comes out and is unable to hear the problem and tells me blah blah blah. She then suggests I put the coin in the meter out side the council offices as she knows it is accepting coins.
I tell her it is unacceptable to expect me to spend my time walking all over town trying to find a meter that’s going to accept my coin.
She suggests I just wait for the infringement notice and then write a letter of explanation.
I suggest that she accepts my coin and be done with it.
She refuses to accept my coin so I place it on the counter and walk out.
She grabs the coin and chases me out of the building trying to return coin.
I tell her I have paid for my parking and have a witness to that too as my partner is with me.
As I drive home I ponder on the waste of ratepayers money spent on employing someone to deal with the increase in people defending parking infringements.
So I suggest to all of you who are unhappy with council not accepting coins in parking meters to do as I have done…..and SPEAK OUT .

Recognising excellence, leadership and innovation in the New Zealand utility sectors, the NZ Compare Awards are back for the 6th year and in response to consumer demand, we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time.
As the boundaries between the utility industries continue to blur the organisers have responded to growing demand to increase the categories and industries celebrated by the NZ Compare Awards and will now recognise excellence and achievement within New Zealand’s BROADBAND, ENERGY and MOBILE sectors for the first time.
Award categories are consumer driven and informed by the 300,000 Kiwis who use NZ Compare websites each month. Winning carries real gravitas with the Kiwi consumer and the awards represent an opportunity to be confident in the talent and vision your company has worked so hard towards. This significant event will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services across these essential industries.
The NZ Compare Awards are supported by a wide range of companies including Movinghub, Vector Metering, Chorus, realestate.co.nz and Neighbourly. The prestigious awards will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services in their industries. With a range of different categories including best home and mobile provider, best customer support, fastest service, best rural provider and best broadband innovation.
Winning an NZ Compare Award depends on a combination of criteria. These include consumer surveys and reviews on the NZ Compare websites and decisions from our expert judging panel.
"Judged by an independent panel of New Zealand experts and presented at our gala awards event, the NZ Compare Awards provide a unique stage on which we recognize and reward the achievements of the New Zealand utility sectors." said Gavin Male, CEO of NZ Compare.
So what do you think? Give a shout out to your favourite utility provider here - not just for doing their job... we want to hear about those that go above and beyond! Who should be a winner?
