Get cosy with your whānau
Don't let your parents go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold.
They deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about their power bills, or their health.
They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
And they may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.
Go to warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz to check their eligibility.
Biding Time - Time Out
It is so sad to see and hear an honest, solid achieving gentleman politician that is Joe Biden, the leader of the free world and the leader of the number one super power and economic giant nation, fail in mind and body so that he is no longer hanging on in facing the terror and threat of the appaulingTrump retaking the reigns of power.
Well before the presidents debate of a few days ago was it obvious Biden was not up to the mark anymore. The use of a telepronter made his recent State of the Union speech sound pitch perfect but his slip-up performances at the G7 meetings in Italy a few weeks ago was reported as pitiful
The sooner he calls it quits from contesting the Presidency and orchestrates the Vice President Harris take over wiining the November elections for the Democrats, the better.
Make no mistake the writing is on the wall for Biden.
Whoever wins the USA presidency for the next 4 years from the start of 2025 - Harris or Trump - will affect NZ and Upper Hutt substantially.
Why are ghosts such bad liars?
...You can see right through them.
