Please do not flush wet wipes!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Council staff found the wipes that were flushed down the toilet were responsible for 30%% of all wastewater system blockages. Removing wet wipe blockages cost ratepayers an estimated $168,000 last financial year.

Council staff found the wipes that were flushed down the toilet were responsible for 30%% of all wastewater system blockages. Removing wet wipe blockages cost ratepayers an estimated $168,000 last financial year.

The blockages - such as one that caused a sewerage overflow in Pilot Bay and closed the popular swimming spot for a week at the height of summer - could cause damage to both the environment and the Tauranga's reputation as a tourism destination.

The council has also started lobbying the Government to ban "misleading" words such as "flushable" and "biodegradable" from being used to market wet wipes made mostly from plastic.

Wet wipes were usually made of a fabric woven together with plastic resins such as polyester or polypropylene, which were not biodegradable.

The NZ Transport Agency advises road users to expect delays on State Highway 2 between Omokoroa Road and Esdaile Road in Tauranga again this Saturday 1st September, between 7am and 5pm while further tree felling & maintenance work is carried out.

The Transport Agency would like to remind motorists this is a hazardous operation that requires all traffic to be stopped while each tree is felled. Stop/Go traffic management will be in place, with a 30km/h temporary speed limit through the work site.

Northbound light vehicles/cars will be required to use the fully signed detour route to minimise their delay and allow the work to be carried out more quickly. The detour route is Left into Youngson Road, Right into Old Highway, Right into Esdaile Road to return to SH2. Read more here.

Social climbers - the comedy - is touring NZ!

Roger Halls Sparkling Comedy Social Climbers

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

Torrential rain and a flooded bridge keep them stranded for three days. What they get up to, to help pass the time, raises a few eyebrows and will have you laughing, tearing up and applauding enthusiastically as they bare all.

Of course, it’s not just souls that are exposed, there’s a little nudity, a cracking thunderstorm, explosions, screaming bloody murder, ghostly stories, a birthday celebration, a séance, a drunken party, confessions, meltdowns and revelations that will keep you and your friends entertained throughout.

Perfectly timed for your own social group’s ascent into summer, don’t miss this hilarious play when it comes to a town near you in November.
