Kia ora neighbours, experience an interactive digital walk-through of KiwiRail’s new Kaiwharawhara ferry terminal precinct at our community drop-in – Pipitea Marae, 55-59 Thorndon Quay, 13 July, 12.30pm – 3pm.

Check out the concept designs for the new terminal and the bigger, hybrid-electric Interisland ferries we’re having custom-built. Work will start shortly on the terminal redevelopment, ready for the arrival of the new ferries from 2025.

The Interislander journey across Te Moana o Raukawakawa (Cook Strait) is one of the most spectacular in the world and we’re creating a customer experience to match.

Come and kōrero with the team working on this awesome project. We’d love to see you there.

"This is six year old Persia, lives in Miramar. I got her from Cats Protection Wellington in February 2022. She likes to be patted and eagerly waits for me to return home from work. She is still timid and hides when my friends visit."

"The clouds have hung so low and angry, that it has looked like grubby twilight all day. Still, everyone just goes about their business despite the shortness of the day and the bleak lighting. The weather didn't phase the fantail/pīwakawaka (Rhipidura fuliginosa), plenty of moths, midges, and spiders still to grab and other beings to investigate."

Soft drink rant at supermarkets

Crete from Lyall Bay

Has anyone noticed the price of soft drinks at paknsave this week? Some people won't care but I was shocked yesterday when I shopped in Kilbirnie paknsave and wanted to buy my normal 2.25 litre bottle only to discover that it had increased more than 25% from $3,49 to $4,65.

Some people won't care but I was shocked yesterday when I shopped in Kilbirnie paknsave and wanted to buy my normal 2.25 litre bottle only to discover that it had increased more than 25% from $3,49 to $4,65. This is outrageous. When I questioned this they said the supplier stated that because the 1,5litre was on sale from $2.65 to $2 this week the 2,25 litre had to be increased. I compared with Countdown - $4,00 for 1,5l and $3.50 for 2.25. And this is just one thing I noticed. I can only imagine what these super markets are manipulating with other products. I guess I will be drinking water from now on.
