What do you think of the new NZ police armour?

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.

They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.

What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Yes you do! Our Triple Cheese Mini Muffins are the perfect snack – just the right size and shape for little hands.

Better still, they’re a snap to make, especially if you have ready-grated tasty and parmesan cheese from Mainland in the fridge.

For the more adventurous eaters, finish each muffin with a little wedge of Brie, Noble or Blue cheese. You might not be able to resist sneaking a couple for your own lunch!

FYI yesterday I took 7 hours to refurbish 2 showers at Papamoa where glass clarity was lost due to water staining.
The Owner was very concerned about the state of the shower and had tried 2 DIY products only to virtually wreck her wrist, yes, wreck her wrist, swelling is still present after 10 months!

This DIY product is currently being marketed on TV and even their internet site shows a very misleading youtube clip. The clip shows the host manually rubbing off severely water stained glass, this is not possible, it would take me at least 2 to 3 hours to machine buff it off and then follow 7 other process steps to bring the glass back to new and then ClearShield protect it.

This DIY product could only be used on new showers and would have to be done every month to remove water staining. It does not seal the pores of the glass and it does not protect the glass from future corrosion/lost clarity, if any-think, it may damage/etch the glass.

The only way to protect your glass is to request ClearShield glass protection, a global leader for 38 years, so tried and proven.

If you would like to know more email clearshieldrestoreandprotect@gmail.com or phone
