Outgoing Retirement Commissioner Diane Maxwell has been outspoken about the need to increase the pension age from 65.
"You used to get super for five years, then 10 and now 20 - soon it'll be 30. I'm not sure how we can fund people getting super for 30 years or more."

New Zealand has one of the simplest pension schemes in the world - all you have to do is be old enough and have lived in the country long enough and you can get it.
But that also makes it expensive - about $14.5 billion this year. Jobseeker benefits, by comparison, cost just $1.7b and sole parent support $1.08b.

I was given Mike Dick's details and from his initial quote throughout the whole building process, he and his son have been excellent in all forms.
His layman communications in dealing with myself (nosy and basic knowledge of building female), his suggestions for other tradies as required (due diligence still done by me to compare quotes) through to his exemplary workmanship.
My builder husband who passed away last year would have been pleased I had found someone of Mike's calibre to do this job.
I believe when you find someone who has provided such excellent service, you should shout it from the rooftops or even better, post it on Neighbourly 😉
Cheers

Hearty gameday choices include blue cheese dip, fried camembert with paprika and parsley, halloumi chips with dukkah, chicken, spring onion and vintage cheddar pizza and smoked cheese and chilli nachos.
So stop off at the chiller section of the supermarket to stock up on quality Mainland cheeses to help craft and create some delicious snacks. Then no matter how your team plays, your friends will go home happy.
