Who was the male jogger Thursday afternoon who knocked into my daughter?
On Thursday afternoon, at about 3.15pm, outside the Salvation Army (cnr Duncan Ave and Mt Albert Road) an adult male jogger knocked into my daughter as he jogged past her. He knocked her mobile phone from her hand and sent it smashing to the ground, breaking it significantly.
It is a really big issue for this solo mother, who can not afford to repair or replace the phone (which was a gift). And a huge disappointment for my daughter who has looked after it so well.
It's so totally uncool. He should have STOPPED and made sure my girl was okay, and that her phone was okay. Instead, he just ran off with a "sorry", leaving US with the damage to try to repair :(
Hoping maybe, that this man has a conscience and is prepared to foot the damages caused - or at least, might make more of an effort to pleeeeeeease just avoid people!

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
