Donating old Playstation games to kids in hospital
Hi all
Before lockdown, I started putting together a donation of old Playstation games for the Wellington Regional Hospital Children's Wards. Now that we're moving around again, I can go and collect the games from those who had a couple to donate. Just leave a comment or send me a message. And sorry if I missed it pre-lockdown.
Basically, the hospital has a couple of well-used old Playstation 2s that are crying out for a few more games.
There is specifically a real need for new or pre-loved G and PG rated PS2 games and PS4 games. They have a couple of PS4s on trolleys and one in the teen room, but the controllers have wandered.
Alternatively, there is also a real need for portable DVD players and older (PG) movies if that’s something you’d be interested in donating.
I can pick up the games from your letterbox in Upper Hutt or whatever is easiest. I work near Hutt Hospital so I could meet you out front if you would rather drop them off in Lower Hutt - whatever suits just send me a message.
Kind regards
Jared

Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
