I can help with that
Hello, my name is Yvonne and I am offering help to anyone out there who needs it or who is lonely.
I am working from home during Level 4 but I can still help you. Some ideas I have are:
1. collecting your groceries for you,
2. walking your dog for you,
3. or even walking with you (we can wear masks and walk 2m apart and still chat),
4. or I can just come along to your letterbox and bring my thermos of coffee and we can sit 2 m apart, with masks on, and simply chat.
I live in Blockhouse Bay but I have a car so a wee drive to you is just fine too.
Yvonne.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
