When Clifford Hallett blows out the candles on his cake in a couple of weeks, he'll likely wish for an extra leave day to celebrate.
Hallett has launched a petition to Parliament requesting it pass legislation to give all employees that right.

The app is easy to download and, from comments that I have seen, its use seems to prompt a more immediate response than a phone call.
When you install the app it will ask you to give it permission to access your Location, Photos/Media/Files, and your Camera. To use it, you simply open the app and follow the simple instructions, including taking a photo of the graffiti or any other thing that needs attention by the Council.

Firstly, we take many measures to ensure your curtains get as clean as possible without shrinkage or colour loss. Recently we have had to re-wash curtains that have been washed but there is still traces of mould or live mould left on the curtain. We take careful steps to ensure this is eliminated as much as possible on the curtain fabric, and can always remove it from linings. These results are simply unable to be duplicated in a home environment.
Spray on curtain cleaning products contain sodium hypochlorite, aka bleach. If you use products to remove mould, it can result in colour loss. This is one of the more common problems we have seen. We test all fabric before cleaning to be sure of what cleaners can be used with it.
Washing curtains in the washing machine can result in other damage – curtains need to be handled with care, especially older fabrics. It is expensive getting a curtain re-lined due to rips – we take extra care in preventing this from happening.
In addition to the above – most of the time, they will come out of the machine wrinkly and look terrible, no matter the fabric type. Our service ensures they look great and ‘like new’ as they can when returned to you (and of course, fresh and clean).
Don’t make the same mistake, call us (the experts) instead.

Its particularly good for lead paint as no volatiles are released. I bought this a couple of years ago and only used it once briefly. Still have the original packing. It comes with a support arm which you can attach to scaffold (if you were scraping your house). Check out this website for the specs: www.i-tools.co.nz...

"I am a special dude who has had an unusual start to my rehoming journey. I am completely deaf but that doesn't stop me having a great time! I am a fun, loveable, boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."

A post on the Lower Hutt Kereru Rescue page is a reminder of how cute or ugly, depending on your point of view, baby kereru are.
The little fellah was handed in to the Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust before being handed over the Welington Zoo.
