Mum thought her headaches were due to epidural. It was brain cancer.

Danielle Clent Reporter from Western Leader

Hi neighbours, a new mum who gave birth alone during the Covid-19 lockdown has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
Jasmin McArdle, 40, gave birth to her second child, son Teddy, on April 21 by emergency C-section. Soon after, headaches that she has always dealt with, became more painful.
She thought the headaches were a symptom of the epidural - only to discover she had a large tumour on her brain.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
