My New Life Starts Today!

Mornay from Shelly Park

Today, I moved into a new house, sharing with the main tenants. The house is really nice & that includes the main tenants. The house is also in a nice neighborhood.
I really wanna say Thank You from the bottom of my heart for all the support from the caring people, that I’ve received after the house-fire in 20 Somerville Road, in which I was a tenant/flatmate.
A huge Thank You to Garry Thompson & his family, for putting me up in their lovely home, for a couple of days, helped me out with clothing, towels & bags, and also washed & dried my fire-smelling clothes.
Thanks so much to my handful of friends who were trying to find me permanent accommodation, and a huge Thank You to one particular person, who sourced & found me my permanent accommodation. You’re a very special Angel that was sent, and you know who you are. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
A special Thank You to the Salvation Army in Howick, who was a tremendous help, and a huge Thank You to Steve from the Salvation Army Shop in Howick, who moved mountains to be able to store my bed, until I moved into permanent accommodation.
Also, many thanks to WINZ Highland Park, who helped me out with temporary accommodation.
If there’s anyone who I forgot to mention, many many Thanks to you too.
Cheers & Goodnight to everyone!

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?
