Left our car across from our friends place after some drinks yesterday and found this when we went to get it today, from Karen of Herne Bay who literally thinks they own the park outside their house. This is my new favourite park forever more.

I met lawyer Sue Grey to try and work out why she’s so dedicated to pushing conspiracy theories - about Covid, about 1080, about 5G - even when her work hurts people. She was warm, charming, and completely convinced of her own rightness. Story here: stuff.co.nz/national/healt…

@nz_voter @colette3652 No ,when NZ planted million of pines in the 80s the then forestry minster (Falloon) pleaded and begged the sector to invest $7 to $8 billion over 25 years so the tsunami of harvested logs could be processed in this country... needless to say they didn't do that...

Sorry, just need an outlet to vent. Starting a $1.2m build next month. Lead time for cladding order was 17 weeks. Ordered last month. Told this morning it won’t get to us until March next year. So we change to a different cladding after asking my rep the lead time. 1/5
