Free Luggage - Check-in x 5 + Carry-on x 1
Free ... Samsonite Cosmolite Extra Lite Hard Cover Luggage x 5 + Jag (Blue Colour) x 1 - needs to go ASAP as taking up garage space. If no one shows any interest either today or tomorrow then I will give them away to Salvation Army.
Apart form airline luggage tags on them and some scratches the bags are in good condition ... no cracks, handles all OK, built-in TSA number locks (000) are all working fine including the full rotating wheels. They are very tough but super light at the same time ... made with Samsonite's patented CURV technology.
In one of the pictures you will see that one of the hinges of the Big Red Samsonite is broken ... but that should matter much as the zip line in these bags are super tough - that's why Samsonite gives 10yr warranty on these bags. These bags are NOT 10yrs old - but I don't have the proof of purchase (misplaced or lost) hence can't give it to you ... also, we just came back from South Africa with that bag (broken hinge) and nothing happened to it.
If you want, you can also take that bag to Lesvos (the bag repair people inside the Wellington Railway station) ... I am sure they can repair it ... those guys are luggage magicians. :-)
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
32.5% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
67.5% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
