A Message For Ole Pedersen of Takanini
Ole hoping you can help me .Ovousily You must watch the Saturday Night Movies on Hope Channel as you have posted about some of them on Neighbourly. So hoping you might remember this movie that was on Hope Channel one Saturday Night and can tell me the name of the movie. Many thanks Rachael
(It was about a Christian guy and he and his wife used to go to the movies regurly with his mates/co workers .There was a male dark skinned christian guru who this christian was interested in and he followed his work . The guru came to city/town where he lived and he got a chance to meet him and sit down with him and talk with him. The christian guru shared his message with him about the media and told him that satans church is the media and that satan has many followers . This got the guy thinking about the types of movies he and wife went to see with his mates/co workers. Not long after he met the guru the guru died and it was suspected that he may have been killed to silence him,to stop him sharing his message. The guy started to feel really uncomfortable about the movies he was going to see with his mates/co workers and decided not to go to the movies anymore and convinced his wife not to go anymore, and told her why and then he shared with his mates/co workers why he would not be going to movies with them anymore. He told them that he realised the females on screen were not sex objects but some ones wife,daughter,sister . I think there was more that happened in the movie but I can't remember anymore.)

‘Tis the season to not get scammed ...
As Christmas gift shopping moves increasingly online, scammers are ramping up their activity across the country.
Dunedin’s Investigation Support Unit is seeing more and more people fall victim to scams and other fraudulent activity, particularly on Facebook Marketplace.
There are a few ways to avoid the scams and keep yourself safe doing online trades this holiday season, says Southern District Service Delivery Manager Senior Sergeant Dalton.
🔒 “A good first step when looking to purchase something on Marketplace is to check when the seller’s Facebook profile was created. If it’s very recent, there is a higher risk that they have just created this account for a one-off fake item.”
🔒 Another important step is to make sure the seller’s profile name and bank account name match up. “We’re seeing a lot of scammers claiming their bank account name is different because it belongs to their partner or family member - that’s a huge red flag."
🔒 “When you’re selling, never trust a screenshot anyone sends you showing that payment has been made. Check your own bank account to make sure a payment has gone through."
🔒 “Quite frankly, it’s best for all parties to agree to pay, or be paid, for items in cash and in-person. Ideally in a public place with CCTV coverage."
🔒 "If you’re buying a car, check Carjam.co.nz to see if it’s stolen or if there’s money owed on it.”
A reminder: Suspicious activity can be reported on 105
Poll: Pedestrian access is being extended to the Ōtakaro Avon River - good idea?
