UPDATE, I adopted a puppy from Napier SPCA, this is my wee Pepper, 5months old, I have had her now for 5weeks, she is super cute, super bubbly and am sure super intelligence will follow soon lol! I have had to remove my floor rugs not coz she is chewing them but because I am over straightening them as she loves to come bolting through the door and skidding on them, is rather entertaining for her, but I cringe at the thought of her breaking something in her path, she dose sit and wait for her food now, this makes me happy, coz I know I not getting jumping on as if I was the food. is so much fun having this adorable puppy in my home! wish I could have taken them all home, so if your looking for a puppy to adopt go see our local SPCA's!!! :-)

Why is honey so expensive?

Sonia from Parkvale

It seems to be so expensive at the moment. The cheapest I could find for 500g was $10. I'm pretty sure not that long ago it was half that. Is there a reason, or am I remembering wrong?

Hi all,

Woke up at 5am this morning, to see my son's work vehicle, parked right outside our bedroom window, has been broken into. Various tools stolen. Please be on the lookout for anyone trying to sell the following items:

Stihl TS 500 Concrete Saw (orange and white) with an orange 8mm thick blade with the trolley (also orange and white);
AEG Drill and Impact Driver Set in the box;
Jack Hammer;
Angle Grinder.

Feel sick to the pit of my stomach about this for the cost implications of the missing tools, damage to the work van as well as implications to the job due to the loss of the tools.

Thank you guys.
