This afternoon (about an hour ago) I was flying my drone around the Te Ahumairangi Hill Trig point lookout taking some shots of the city and a huge gust of wind blew it northwest of that spot. Surrounding streets are Pembroke road, Bedford st, Glamorgan st etc – but it could be anywhere in northland/wilton – this is just the general area where it lost connection. Attached is an image of the last known GPS coordinates before the drone lost connection, so I assume it's not far from here. I've also included a photo of what the drone looks like.
If anyone finds it, or heard any buzzing noises nearby, I would be so appreciative of any information, and I'd be more than happy to give a reward for anyone who knows where it is. I'm so gutted, so if you or anyone you know can tell me anything at all that would be amazing!

I’m a new speech and drama teacher in Wellington and I’m looking for some students for 2019 that might be interested in taking classes. I’m an Associate of Trinity College London and teach all ages, in both private and group settings. I am three quarters of my way through my Licentiate diploma and I would love some students to help me finish it off.
Speech and drama is excellent for helping to build confidence, improving literacy skills and I can even help with certain speech issues. I teach adaptable lessons that can be more drama focused or that lean more into the presenting and speaking side of things.
If you're interested or know someone that might be, contact me at eminardsblack@gmail.com or 027 255 2436. Thanks!

But before getting out on your bike, make sure you take time to check out some great ways to help you and your mates enjoy the ride this summer!
Remember the most experienced rider should ride at the back of the pack, and plan your stops along the way. If you find yourself ahead of the group slow down and wait for others to catch up. And as always, ride your own ride and stay Shiny Side Up!
Hi neighbours,

Does our attitude toward disability carparks need to change? Stuff Nation contributor Noel Burland thinks so.
He expressed his opinion of the topic after an article appeared on Stuff about a man in Rangiora, who had taken his nine-year-old son who has Cerebral Palsy to the local swimming pool, and found a note on his car that read: "not genuine, shame on you" on his windscreen after he legally had used a disability park outside the pool.
"The person who left the note has quite clearly made an egregious error of judgement, something that may be more common than we realise,
" Burland said.
"That error was the fact that not all disabilities are visible and this person was completely wrong to assume the family weren't entitled to use the park - despite the fact they had the proper disability card displayed on the dashboard of their car."
So we want to hear your opinion on this topic. Have you ever faced a situation like this in your community? Do you think most people understand the rules around disability carparks? Do drivers need to improve their attitudes? Share your thoughts in the replies below.
(Please add "NFP/not for print" if you do not want your images/ comments used on Stuff)
Need or would like any of the items have them available for free in Newtown. Liquid smoke is used to give a hint of smokiness in cooking.
Happy New Year 🌰🌱🌳 cheers Faye
