VINTAGE BIC TRIANGLE-SHAPED OVERSIZED BIROS OR PENS

Margaret from Paparangi

Has anyone got any of these pens lying around unused, VINTAGE BIC TRIANGLE-SHAPED OVERSIZED BIROS OR PENS, also on the lookout for some refills. I have found a pencil which is great, but alas no pens, I can't even recall what years these were manufactured and sold? The reason I ask is, I have lost the fine motor use of 2 fingers and my thumb, pending a scan to ascertain the reason for this, (I have joined the many thousands of New Zealanders having to wait for scans, etc), I have found my writing is affected, but these pens are just the right thickness and shape to enable me to grip and produce, at least, semi-literate hand writing! Please let me know.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
