Do you support the ban on smoking and vaping in cars with children?
The Government intends to make it illegal to smoke and vape in vehicles when people younger than 18 are inside. But police say it would be dishing out fines those who could least afford to pay them. To read more, click here
There seems to not be any takers for this. I perhaps should of mentioned that this can very easily be turned into 2x single beds!

In any case I am happy to give away the 2x single mattresses if anyone needs them and the frame I will turn into firewood. I just need to clear some space for my daughters new bed. Contact as below.
I have slightly unusual bunkbeds for kids to give to a good home. They were home made (not by me) and come with 2x good matresses. The top bunk is quite high but as it is basically made of 4x2 could be cut down. Some disassembly would be required. Feel free call or txt 022 644 7545

The latest in a number of businesses that have occupied this location. There are probably a number of factors why they’ve closed but I wonder if there simply isn’t the foot traffic in the area any longer to make it an economic proposition. After the Post Office the longest tenure I can recall there was Mel’s Diner which was something of an institution.
Mel’s catering business for the burgeoning film industry at the time would also have helped.
Maybe the area can only handle businesses that rely on very low overheads, relatively light turnover, or specialist high quality products and services with few more accessible competitors in neighbouring suburbs.
So what for Berhampore? Will it continue to show the signs and symptoms of a depressed socio-economic area (lots of empty shops, a growing number of second hand shops, etc) or is there hope? I understand that there are going to be quite a lot of road works happening in the area, which as Kilbirnie can attest certainly didn’t help business.
As an ex-resident (I lived in Berhampore in the 70’s and again in the late 80’s) I’d be very sad to see this happen.
Do WCC have any plans to boost economic development in the area? Do WCC even have integrated economic development strategies at a suburban level or are they completely macro-focused and are taking a “let the devil take the hindmost” approach.
Maybe someone from the Berhampore Residents Association can comment. I know that in Island Bay attempts by resident and business organisations to engage with local authorities and officers have not been that successful or sometimes not even that well-received. Unless of course the approaches are completely aligned with what they already have decided is needed 🙄
There's nothing worse than a soggy sammy. The trick to keeping kids interested in eating their lunch (and stopping yourself getting bored making it) is mixing it up with variations on a theme that you know they already love.

So instead of a plain ham and cheese sandwich on sliced bread, try folding slices of ham and cheese into wedges of crunchy baguette or a soft bap. Save time and stress by using Mainland’s convenient sliced cheese – available in Edam, Tasty, Colby and Swiss to suit your family’s taste.
Head to mainland.co.nz for some quick and easy cheesy ideas.
Comes with controller, games and case as pictured
Still in working order but kids have enough devices!!
