I was cycling eastbound on Riccarton Road on Saturday 13 August approx 1:30pm in the marked cycle lane when I was hit by a vehicle (blue Subaru) that was wanting to turn left into a property (Kauri Lodge opposite the McDonald's).
Driver initially accepted fault but is now going back on his words and is refusing to cover bike repairs. I've submitted a police report and looking for witnesses to confirm what unfolded.
Might be a long shot but if you happened to have seen the incident and can come forward as a witness please contact me on 0211072797 or inha.go@outlook.com, would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks, Inha

Sarah Wylie, a social researcher is currently undertaking research on Burnside and the surrounding area for two local churches, Burnside Campus - Christchurch Elim (Grahams Rd) and St Timothy's (Kendal Ave). We are keen to better understand our community and its strengths, challenges, and needs, to help us tailor the activities and supports we collectively offer, complementing the great things already happening locally.
if you live in this area, it would be awesome to hear from you via this survey. It will take a few minutes and it won't identify you - what you say is anonymous.
The survey will be online until 29 August 2022.

I need some inspiration for the best ways to give away dozens of beautiful magazines. Most of them are not very old, and would provide hours of reading and enjoyment.
There is also a collection of Vogue magazines, dating back to the 80’s.

There is also a collection of Vogue magazines, dating back to the 80’s.
A family member has been an avid buyer/reader, but it’s time to clear them.
I do not wish to dump them. A few examples are included here.
Apart from advertising them on Neighbourly or Marketplace, does anyone know of other places that would be interested?
Many thanks!

A married person gets a pension of $817.32 a fortnight, before tax, compared with the $990.20 received by a person sharing with someone who is not their spouse or partner.
“I have a friend who isn't in a relationship, but she's sharing a house, and they share all the expenses, and she's going to end up getting $172.88 more than me a fortnight which is just plain wrong,” said Daphne, who did not want her last name used for privacy concerns.
The combined fortnightly payment for a couple is $1634.64.
The Ministry of Social Development said people in a relationship were more likely to share a wider range of costs and resources than a single person living with another adult.

Shout out to the lovely Bonnie at Urban Hair and Beauty who did a fabulous job of my hair recently.
My hair was quite yellow and knotty before she made it look so amazing!
This is the salon near Pizza Hut on Main South Rd.
