FOUND - Childs glasses in Wilton outside Otari School

Karl from Wilton

Hi we found these sitting on a fence outside Otari School yesterday. We thought a child might have put them there during after school pickup and perhaps forgot them. I'm dropping them off to Otari school this afternoon for whoever to collect.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With universities starting up last week, so brings first-time flatters trying their hand at cooking for the first time. In 2020, 27% of a household’s weekly budget was spent on takeaways so it’s no wonder that cooking is becoming a bit of a lost art.

I am no longer looking in from the outside

I had a sense of isolation and loneliness which had been with me from childhood. As an overweight child I went on to be an obese adult.

I suffered from massive anxiety and later on in life with depression. If asked how I was I would reply 'fine', but inside felt dreadful. I recall feeling depressed in my late teens and later had postnatal depression with the births of my children. The amounts I was eating at these times increased and so did my weight - the more I ate, the worse I felt; the worse I felt, the more I ate.

The total number of stalls was lower than in recent years, but the quality certainly made up for that, and those food stalls that were there all had long queues! As usual, we have had many complimentary comments about how our Karnival is such a great community event!
