It seems almost certain that Chris Hipkins will be the new Prime Minister of NZ.
Hipkins best credential is that he is the member for Remutaka ie Upper Hutt.
He is also rather personable and approachable - which follows in the footsteps of John Key and Jacinda Ardern and are traits which by and large Kiwis prefer.
His reputation for being effective, efficient and quick witted will not harm his stint as PM be it only til this coming October.
During the Thorndon Fair a few weeks ago, my Corgi used Ardern's garden as a toilet. I hope that was not a reason for her departure.

4 colour, automatic duplex, WiFi connection, scanner.
The printer, about 4 years old, will not boot into operating mode and may require downloading new software. The problem is not mechanical or jammed. It is electronic.

I don't have the time or inclination to play with it and have already replaced it because I have regular need of a scanner. There are 4 new ink cartridges (black, cyan, magenta, yellow) as well as cartridges in the printer.

FREE to a home with an interested enthusiast who might be able to get it working.

Taking shape right now is the Hutt Valley's first public half court basketball court.

It's being installed on Grant's Bush Reserve in Wallaceville Estate and only metres away from a host of residential houses.

I have mixed feelings in regard to this amenity designed in particular for 10-20 year olds to enjoy.

Some of these amenities get dismantled overseas and I believe one was shut down in Auckland.

Outdoor public half court basketball courts can promote high noise levels, unruly behaviour and a place for influencing anti social actions.

The Upper Hutt City Council had received submissions etc opposing the court and/or where it is located.
