Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts … View moreWhether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

(they are also going to allow inferior levels in aromatics in petrol as well)
High-sulfur diesel can damage diesel engines
, particularly modern ones, by forming corrosive sulfuric acid during combustion, which destroys engine parts and contaminates oil. It primarily damages emission systems like Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) and Catalytic Converters, leading to high repair costs, reduced performance, and increased maintenance.
Key Damages Caused by High-Sulphur Diesel:
Corrosion and Wear: Sulfur creates sulfuric acid inside the engine, corroding cylinder liners, piston rings, and metal components.
Emissions System Failure: High sulfur levels "poison" or clog catalysts and DPFs, which are designed for cleaner, ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD).
Oil Contamination: Acidification of engine oil forces faster depletion of oil additives, leading to reduced lubrication, sludge buildup, and shorter oil life.
Fuel System Deposits: It can increase deposits in the injection system, resulting in power loss, improper dosing, and lowered fuel efficiency.
While older engines might tolerate it for short periods, long-term use is destructive. Modern diesel engines with advanced emission controls are far more sensitive to high-sulfur fuel.

I am posting here in hopes anyone on this app has any information what so ever, my beautiful girl has been missing since the 1st of February 2026 when she escaped out of a window in our new house. We moved from Levin so she is unfamiliar with the area and we've done everything recommended to find her and bring her home. Im hoping someone on here might know anything.
We’ve all seen the warnings: fuel prices are surging toward heights we haven’t seen in years, with some projections suggesting we could hit the $4 mark soon. While the experts are saying "don't panic buy," it’s hard not to feel a bit of "pump shock" every time we fill… View moreWe’ve all seen the warnings: fuel prices are surging toward heights we haven’t seen in years, with some projections suggesting we could hit the $4 mark soon.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
Friday 20 & Saturday 21 March, 10am - 2pm.
Come and experience the warmth of our Ryman village communities, we'd love to show you around.

Since school funding and teacher numbers are tied to how many students are in the classrooms, our local schools might be facing some "belt-tightening" in the coming years.
Our question to you: How can our communities manage a drop in school funding without losing the "soul" of our local schools?

🛡️ 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.
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
