Female doctor looking for dog-friendly accommodation
A friend is doing placements at Whangarei Hospital from 8-14 January, and 22 January - 23 February. While she is in town, she is looking for accommodation where she can bring her dog.
She is a friendly professional; her dog is, in her words, "...fascinated by other animals and will sniff and wander, but doesn't really chase them. Whether cats like him depends more on the cat. He is an inside and outside dog, outside when [she is] not at home (needs to be fenced, though)...and sleeps inside."
If anyone has recommendations, please let me know and I'll pass them on.
Thanks in advance :)
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?
-
35.4% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
64.6% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Rubbish dumping
Can whoever is dumping their rubbish down the bank on Memorial Drive please stop. The Pack and Save bags for life that you're using are probably just as expensive as the council rubbish bags that you can also buy at Pack and Save.
