If you are embarking on a new chapter of life, the thought of shedding familiar possessions can feel even more stressful. This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.

What are the lessons to be learned from this tragedy?
One thing that struck me was that each postmaster/postmistress was told: " You are the ONLY ONE having a problem," and everyone believed it.
It was only years later, Alan Bates was forced to organize a group!
And then the "Sunday" program dropped the bombshell from an expert about the security systems in NZ Banks and the UK. She said, the contrast between the two systems is like night and day !!
Are the banks taking advantage of us customers who have no common voice?

A cozy home for winter.
I am looking for a short to long term renter for my unit which I normally run as an air bnb.
It’s a 1 bedroom unit in Island Bay, overlooking Cook Strait, and is available for rent until the spring, possibly longer. Fully self-contained with your own entrance, it has a full kitchen, bathroom, living room with a balcony, and one bedroom. It’s fully furnished, has good heating, and is presented to air bnb standards.
The balcony adjoins mine and I have 2 dogs who will bark at first and then fall in love with the occupants if encouraged
The internal stairs are steep so that needs to be considered. It's suitable for one person or a couple but not children.
Rental is $525 per week plus power with a bond of $1,500. Wifi is free.
10-minute walk to the local shops. The number 29 bus stops across the street or walk 5 mins to get the more Number 1.

Coming at you full force via ancient Rome, this free-wheeling adaptation is laugh-out-loud funny and subversively philosophical.
The original, written almost 2,000 years ago by Apuleius, is the only Latin novel to survive in its entirety. In this riotous adaptation Hurst takes his audience on a wild ride, bringing a fresh and funny take on this fantastical, hilarious and sometimes terrifying tale.
The Golden Ass is a tale of epic proportions, and a powerful plea for empathy in a world gone mad.
