Council's strange priorities...

Neil from Thorndon

This image shows paid Council employees as they harass naughty drivers, it also shows severe road damage in the foreground.
It's clear where Mayor Whanau's priorities lie and it isn't on fixing the roads.
By the way, I'm a cyclist.

Our wee little girl learnt to ride on this really well designed bike. It's in terrific condition, the only real 'damage' being that the bell needs replacing! - apart from the expected signs of light normal use.
It's best design features for us are it's really low weight and larger wheels, something that sets it apart from most other bikes aimed at that age group.
It's suitable for boys or girls, Age: 4 - 6 years | Height: 95 - 117cms

These links will tell you all you need to know about this awesome bike:

Poll: Is there a place for Halloween in NZ?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's that spooky time of year and while there are some streets that welcome Halloween and set themselves up for trick or treating, there are other houses where you're more likely to get an earful than Halloween lollies. Do you think there's a place for Halloween in NZ?

‘The Maverick’ Russell loves a challenge

Rita Angus Retirement Village

At 96, Logan Campbell resident Russell Parrish has achieved an incredible feat - ‘knocking off’ the summit of One Tree Hill 30 times over 30 consecutive days. Plus, it was all for a great cause — raising money and awareness for Alzheimer’s in honor of his late wife Mary.

At 96, Logan Campbell resident Russell Parrish has achieved an incredible feat - ‘knocking off’ the summit of One Tree Hill 30 times over 30 consecutive days. Plus, it was all for a great cause — raising money and awareness for Alzheimer’s in honor of his late wife Mary.

Every single day of September, come rain, shine or blustering gale, Russell set off from his home at Ryman Healthcare’s Greenlane village to walk to the top of the iconic mountain set in the heart of Cornwall Park.

The idea also coincided with Ryman Healthcare’s annual Walking for Wellness challenge, which this year aptly had an Everest theme.

Greetings -

My good friend Kish owns a jewelry store on Cable Car Lane off Lambton Quay. Since the cruise ships are starting to come to Wellington, he needs help now to greet potential customers and invite them into his store.

Experience in the jewelry industry is not needed, for the position does not involve sales in the store. It calls for a person to stand in Cable Car Lane and inform the people standing in line to by a cable car ticket about the unique nature of the store. Consequently, Kish is looking for someone who is extroverted, charismatic, and comfortable with speaking to large groups of people.

Hours and days are highly flexible. Pay is $22.70 an hour. Please call or text Kish at 0210356223. He's really a good guy and you will enjoy working for him.

Best wishes - Michael
