These little stoves date from the 40s and 50s. They are very collectable. They work on kerosene, paraffin or lamp oil and are excellent as a camp stove . My mother often used a stove like this to simmer food when I was a child in Holland.
It has a new wick and looks as if it has never been used .… View moreThese little stoves date from the 40s and 50s. They are very collectable.

This time it’s our community, next time it could be yours.
The affected residents have a legitimate expectation that Wellington Airport (having public law responsibilities) would consult before any proposal to divert aircraft over their suburbs. The consultation they are now offering was required by law BEFORE the DMAPs flight path change was developed.
Change is divisive, so it's frustrating that a proper consultation process didn't happen before implementing the DMAPs flight path change. We are arguing a lack of fair process before the change. If the residents had been consulted beforehand, they could have had a say before the status quo for the last 60 years was altered. Those residents, who knew a change in noise would be an issue for them and their health, could have had their say and been considered.
Plane Sense is holding Wellington International Airport Airways New Zealand, Civil Aviation Authority of NZ and Wellington City Council (as a shareholder) to account for a change over the northern suburbs on 1 December 2022. As well as significant legal issues, there are public health and safety concerns for residents and our local environment. Plane Sense is fundraising to commence a judicial review. Have questions?

In this case scammers use WhatsApp to impersonate family members or friends in saying they need help and in particular need money.
Victims of this scam have received a message from an unknown number, claiming to be a loved one who has just lost their phone and got a replacement.
The scammer then attempts to obtain the victim’s credit card information.
These kinds of scams run constantly and while most people will not respond or buy into them, some people are more vulnerable.
We urge people to have conversations with vulnerable or elderly family members, to help ensure they are aware of the tactics often used by scammers and don't become victims.
If you are in doubt because a person is claiming to be a family member or friend, ask them a personal question – for example their date of birth, maiden name, pet name or name of a sibling.
Do not provide a password, credit card or bank details without making absolute sure, it is someone you know.
No legitimate agency will contact you and ask for your bank details or credit card out of the blue.
Police’s message on scams like this is simple – do not engage with anyone on the phone, and if you think you are being scammed report the incident immediately.
Anyone who believes they are a victim of a scam, in person, over the phone or online, should immediately report it to their bank, and then to their local Police.
