A Christmas to Remember 2018
Tuesday 11 December, 7.00pm at Westpark Chapel, 467 Wairakei Road, Burnside.
We would like to invite you and your extended family and friends to join us in A Christmas to Remember. Together we will share a commemorative time and celebrate Christmas.
You may wish to light a candle to symbolise a life still significant, and there will be an opportunity to write a personal message on an angel card to place on our tree. In the New Year the messages will be gathered together and interred at our Living Memorial at Otukaikino to form a tribute in memory of those who no longer share Christmas with us.
Light refreshments will be served.


Razor blades in the walls....
Has anyone ever seen something like the image below in an older Kiwi home? Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a nasty, rusty surprise.
I'm certain I've seen something like this here in Aotearoa-NZ, but can't for the life of me recall where. It was in the back of the medicine cupboard. Let us know if you've seen, had - or have - one in your home.


Poll: Covid-19: Should scanning be mandatory at pubs, clubs, restaurants, etc?
A leading coronavirus expert is calling on the Government to make scanning at potential “super-spreader” venues, such as bars and nightclubs, mandatory amid continued low use of the Covid-19 Tracer app.
Epidemiologist Dr Michael Baker said the next six months would be a “very dangerous” time for the country with a high risk of an outbreak while waiting for the vaccine roll-out in April.
Do you think scanning should be mandatory at pubs, nightclubs, etc?

Poll: Covid-19: Do you scan a QR code or sign a sheet when entering a business?
Happy Tuesday neighbours,
Many people have come forward saying their phone can't scan a QR code and many businesses have gotten rid of sign in sheets, leaving them confused with what they're supposed to do when they enter a business.
Are you one of these people? I'd love to hear from you, please email me at jake.kenny@stuff.co.nz
If you have been to a business that has no QR codes OR sign-in sheet, please also let me know via email or in the comments.
Thanks in advance for your help.

-
69.5% I scan the QR codes
-
20.3% I write my name on a sign-in sheet (if there is one)
-
10.2% I do neither
