Is this the example we want shown to our kids?
I have watched the TV show Shortland Street for a number of years but the last few months have just about put me off the production for good. We have had an endless stream of nurses and other staff swapping bed mates like changing their underwear and Doctors and other Medical staff using a variety of illegal drugs while still being allowed to work! Is this really what we want showing on prime time TV and being seen by our kids? Do we want our kids to think that Doctors are happy to use these drugs while treating their patients? Well I do not want that and I hope our real Doctors don't either! Enough is enough and I believe TVNZ should take Shorty St off the air completely until the Writers/Producers learn we don't want this sort of rubbish being played on our TV's. I have attached a link to this post. It relates to 2 deaths at a festival in Australia, just last night. Please read it and see how easy it is for kids to die. I don't want my kids or yours to die this way. In my case it could be my Grand kids and soon my Great-Grand kids.

Cleaner recommendation
Hey I just wanted to tautoko the marvelous mahi of Nikki aka Kleen Queen.
Nikki arrived in my life when my world was in a spin. Her excellent work meant I could focus on the kids, and everything else because the stress of a clean house was taken away.
And I have to say not just clean...spotless!! I swear I look for things she's missed but my man's eye cant find a thing.
If you've been considering having someone come in I promise you won't regret it and you'll do that thing where you go why didn't I do it sooner. Avoid those franchised cleaners....Kleen Queen is what you want.....do it.....do it......do it!!!
