Please let me know if you witnessed a car damage a parked car at New World Miramar at around 9:45am today. My car was parked near the Stone St entry, against the south side of the dental practice, and the rear drivers side was scraped by a car that pulled in next to me while I was in the store.

Just been watching the TV news predicting that Wellington is going to be suffering severe water shortages in the coming summer months.
And I'm wondering, why is the WCC spending so much time, money and resources on digging up and replacing perfectly good gutters in Island Bay (and other suburbs). They've been doing this work literally for months in Beramphore and Island Bay. And the old gutters appear to be in quite good if not very good condition.
Why are they not using this time, money and resources fixing our water infrastructure???
I don't understand. Is it just me wondering this????

Kia Ora,
📆 Still on the lookout for a house/pet/plants sitting opportunity from mid December to early January (flexible dates).
🐈I used to housesit one of my friend’s place in Hataitai who also had a cat and plants to care for. I am a responsible gal, tidy, clean, and respectful of rules and places. I obviously love pets and being active so if you have any furry friends it would be my pleasure to take them for their walks/run or swims. 🦮🌱
⭐️ If you're planning a holiday, reach out and I'll ensure your home and furry friends remain in great hands.
Feel free to message me if you or someone you know might need a house or pet sitter. Cheers!
🏡 Preferably looking for house sitting close to town (Hataitai, Kilbirnie, Miramar suburbs since I don’t have a car yet)
