Palmer Crescent in Hetetaunga is a street with problems manufactured by the UHCC.

A few years ago the road was resealed to such a poor degree that the surface was worse after the resealing than prior. Some improvement was eventually made - but only to part of the road.
Now there was a decision to place road humps along the road in an effort to slow traffic - not that I have ever witnessed an issue of undue speed by traffic nor any overload of traffic despite a school sited at the northern entrance to the road.
Not just one or two humps have been laid but five.
It's just patently ridiculous and if Palmer Crescent needs all these humps to slow traffic to 15-20kph, what's to stop road humps emerging in a majority of streets in Upper Hutt apart from financial considerations. Luckily the UHCC has put up rates to pay for the Palmer Cres project.

Good bands, good food, great craft beer, great venue, good atmosphere and little or no need for police action.
But from $40 per person in past years for non-VIP entry fee it has jumped to $119 right now and shortly will incrrase for "late bookers" to $139.
Nothing much has changed in band/entertainment quality to warrant such a huge increase. And from being under cover fir the first 3-4 years the show is now fully outdoors which subjects revellers to any conditions.
Two years ago the weather was coldish and breezy.

To prevent further youth crime, the government has proposed stays at military-style camps for up to 12 months for young offenders. Do you think the camps will be successful in rehabilitating youth who commit crimes?

If you are going to the All Blacks game tonight, could someone please record the half time performance for me? My daughter and her roopu are performing and I would love to have a recording of their performance as they never show the half time performance on tv.
I would be so happy to be able to see it as my son and I cannot attend.
Thanks so much neighbours

Maybe we have been overrated so that expectations and hype have not come to fruition.
At Tokyo 3 years ago we won 20 medals covering 11 sports. There is no way we are going ro match this in Paris. Our .most gold at an Olympics has been 8 with 7 at Tokyo 2021.
The French have done an amazing job with these Olympics. The opening ceremony was outstanding and truly unique. The crowds have turned up - and how with 75000 daily watching the track &field and at a different stadium over 65000 daily in the stands for the rugby. The Tower has been an inspirational focal point and the standatds in the sports to date apart from skateboarding has been higher than ever before despite lack of world records esp in swimming. The shallow watered pool has been partially blamed for this.
The French are not perfect however and the incredible barring of a great and celebrated athlete from competing in the semt final of the 100m women will never be forgotten.

The good news is, the Covid vaccine can help protect you from serious illness. It’s free, and recommended for you and many others as long as you haven’t had the vaccine, or Covid, in the last 6 months.
