Sarah Millican
3 of us went to the Sarah Millican show in Nelson on Wednesday night at the Trafalgar Centre. We booked the tickets in June and were very excited at the thought of seeing “our friend” Sarah whose occasional “basic “ humour we can readily accept and laugh at because it is part of her and her skill at delivering it is stunning. We have built up a relationship with her over the years.(thanks to you tube) and she has earned our presence and our money !
So……in came Sarah……Yay ! Big smiles from us and a warm feeling that she is actually here in Nelson !
5 minutes later she had gone, after introducing a support act, which was the first we knew about there being one….another female comedienne, except she wasn’t. She was a vulgar shocking untalented assault on our senses.She also shouted over the microphone.
When Sarah returned we found it difficult to open up to her after having clammed up to protect ourselves.
How can this happen ? An untalented and inappropriate person with a very specific following if any, has a ready made captive audience ?
I am wondering how this goes with trade description rules……anyone know ?
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

‘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
