Warming up winter - come and join us in Wairarapa.

Stamp Collectors

Paul from Thorndon

Anybody have any contacts for any stamp collectors? I have a whole lot of stamps that I acquired from a relative who's now overseas and we were wondering if any of them were of any value, other than the face value.

Thanks in advance

WCC videos bus lanes for fines!

The WCC must have money to burn. Just now l checked on two people making a video of cars driving in the bus lane. They advised me that the video would be reviewed and offenders would be fined!

I almost never see cars in the bus lane but WCC must think there's an opportunity to make some money.
I bet the camera crew is costing at least $300/hour but it's only your money, so, whatever!
Be warned, bus lanes bring fines!

Are you lost without internet?

Telecommunications Dispute Resolution

The internet is a wonderful thing. It’s how many of us work, study and play. It’s a
big part of how we do what we do every day.

Registering Firearms

Hi neighbours :) I have a quandary to present.
As examples; we register our cars and complete change of ownership paperwork when we sell them. We register our houses and properties when we complete ownership papers/information etc We register our dogs and if they are rehomed the new caregiver is required to register them at their property and under their own names. It has/is being suggested we register our cats and their are council initiated restraints on how many we can have in some areas.
But now that there is an act passed into law that people are required to register their guns there is a big hoo-hah about freedoms of ownership and some politicians is getting in on the act declaring they will repeal this law if they gain power.
I would ask, what makes gun ownership so special that the guns should not be tracked individually as a means of containing the possibility of abuse of their use?
Much the same as 'dangerous' dogs are restricted, contained and monitored...shouldn't the same be happening with weapons such as guns which are equally able to main and kill?
Just asking :)

CONSTANT OBSESSION LIFTED

My earliest childhood memories are of me eating food in secret. Up until the age of twenty-three, when I came into recovery, I went to great lengths to steal money from my family, friends and neighbours to buy food.

No matter whose kitchen I was in, at any opportunity I had to be alone I would raid the cupboards and fridge. I had huge embarrassment about the way I ate, as I recognised that others didn't eat the same way.

Join us for another exciting Cushion Concert at the historic Inverlochy House with Planet. Not to worry if a cushion is not your thing...we have chairs!

PLANET mixes traditional bagpipe airs, with post punk riffs, and a dollop of vaudevillian good humour.
It could be world music, it could be underground indie rock. It could be psychedelic folk music. But it's always approachable and certainly a lot of fun.

Only $10 Sunday 25 June 5-6pm
Book here www.inverlochy.org.nz......
