Cleaning out the house: Spider catcher - spoken for

Aya from Khandallah

Brand new spider catcher (never used - we have 2).

Works quite well but can impale the spider if you're not careful.

URBAN SANCTUARY - 4 - 6 Oswald Crescent, 21 2 & 3 Bdrm Units to be built!!
2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom Property type: Townhouse Enquiries over $595,000 & 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms Townhouse Enquiries over $695,000. This beautiful development offers a collection of 21 contemporary styled two and three bedroom townhouses with off street parking via a private laneway, designed by multi award winning architect Sheppard and Rout.

UTTER CRAP!! Check out the listing on Trade Me, the Council has obviously given permission for the development to go ahead but as you will see the 'off street parking via a private laneway' only allows for 1 car! It doesn't take much intelligence to realise that 2 to 3 bdrm dwellings will attract a minimum possibility of 2 to 3 cars so where does the Council think the rest of the rest of the cars are going to be parked?? Kiss goodbye to Newlands as we know it, the council is hell bent on killing the centre of Newlands, with no consideration for the infrastructure, traffic etc etc. Just wait for another 2 years when there will be a further 25 'units' built on Newlands Road, where the old NorthPac used to be, combine that with the 16 "units' under development on the cnr of Batchelor and Atkinson Street and the Centre of Newlands is effectively 'screwed'.

Just remember this is election year for the local council so the ideal opportunity to get rid of Justin Lester, Peter Gilberd, Malcolm Sparrow, Jill Day and the rest of the current council who have done all they can to suffocate Newlands, the way they have done in Johnsonville, with utter contempt and scant regard for the ratepayers that have lived in these areas for longer than they have been in office!!!

Does our driving attitude need to change?

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.

How much do flash jandals cost now?

Jonathan Milne Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Jandals. The good old Kiwi flip flop. When the sun is blazing down, the rubber shoe can take you from the morning stroll to get a paper, the beach, and then on to a bar. But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've … View moreJandals. The good old Kiwi flip flop. When the sun is blazing down, the rubber shoe can take you from the morning stroll to get a paper, the beach, and then on to a bar. But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've seen in the beach boutiques nowadays?
