HALLOWEEN has moved!!!!!!!!!!
You may know us from Maungatapu (Tutauanui private lane) but you'll now find us down at the bottom of Stableford Drive in Pyes Pa.... spread the word - come and see us if you can.
——————————🎃—————————
Being a Canadian living in NZ, I not only celebrate and decorate, but I encourage Halloween for all ages. I grew up trick or treating and absolutely LOVED it. It’s a fun night for everyone involved. I was so happy to have so many kids last year - apple bobbing was a monster smash!!!!
If you’re a parent looking to take your kids out, bring them by for a treat!! I have chocolate - and this year something different up my sleeve for kids with awesome costumes (I love the effort put in)! For you adults - bring your travel mug for some halloWINE. If it doesn’t go I’ll be forced to eat and drink it all myself - not ideal with summer on the way!!
See you THURSDAY night!! 🎃👻😈🌛👹 PM me if you need more details!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
-
35.4% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
64.6% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

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.
