We have got a pet lamb boy who is one of the triplets born on Friday night. I gave them colostrum to help the mother ewe out and this one decided he likes me with the bottle instead of his mum... He senses me when I come out on a paddock and walks towards me ignoring his mother calling him.
As I work full time I am unable to bottle feed him. Would like to find a family when he will be loved and cared for.
Please message me if you are interested. We are in Swannanoa.
Have a great day everyone!
You need probate because your brother had more than $15,000 in Kiwisaver. Your brother's lawyer holds his will. That lawyer says they will get probate for you. That's a relief!
Before you go ahead, ask them what it will cost. (If you don't ask, they don't have to tell you … View moreYou need probate because your brother had more than $15,000 in Kiwisaver. Your brother's lawyer holds his will. That lawyer says they will get probate for you. That's a relief!
Before you go ahead, ask them what it will cost. (If you don't ask, they don't have to tell you beforehand.)
Ask them whether that includes the High Court fee.
If they say something that totals more than $600, maybe ask them to wait until you get back to them.
Then take a look at our website. (Hint: in most cases, we charge $400, to which you add the High Court fee of $200.)
It's entirely up to you - although, as the executor and trustee of the estate, you do have a duty to act in the best financial interests of the beneficiaries.
All the best

I called Vodafone because my Gmail was no longer showing up on my iphone mail app since I had changed the password. The Vodafone rep could not help me so they told me to call Google for help and gave me an Auckland phone number. I called and the heavily accented man asked me for similar information as Vodafone did (birth date, address, phone number, full name and type of phone) then told me because it was a free gmail account that I was using that I would have to pay $99 to have them correct the problem! This didn't sound right. I consulted my partner and he said it sounded unnecessary and could be a scam. I discontinued the conversation with Google man.
It was a bit of a worry, like a reverse version of those annoying dinner time calls on the landline that insist you have a computer problem, only this was a referral from a Vodafone rep. I spent the next hour checking in with my bank (due to personal info shared), police and netsafe. I also called back Vodafone to report what had happened. In the end they stood by their rep and said it was legitimate, however this time the Vodafone tech said to contact Apple for support. I am sharing this because I would like to know if anyone else has had this issue, not getting their email to come up on their mail App on their iPhone and how they resolved the issue?
