Homelessness from the inside...
When you’re homeless, sleeping under the New Zealand flag might just be a final defense. That’s what Six reckons.
Six doesn’t live on the streets any more but she hasn’t forgotten how if feels to fall. To find yourself without a roof, no corner of the world to call your own. She wanted to make sure other people understood what it’s like so she started a community paper about homelessness from the inside.
In The K’Rd Chronicles, we take to the streets of inner city Auckland and meet the people from Six’s world. Join Stuff over the next 8 weeks, as winter sets in, to learn about their struggle to change their lives … and to stay alive.
Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
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?

Cat door
I am going away for a short time next month and need to have my cat door fixed so I can fit the gadget to it which prevents cats, other than mine, from entering my home. The cat door is already an hole in the door but the flap part has come off and leaves an open space. Not sure how things will work but maybe there is an handyman who could come and have a look and see if something will work out ?? Sorry the description is '' vague'' but it's not your usual cat door! Thanks so much.
