I have lived in New Zealand for the last twelve years, after being born and raised in Somerset, England. My parents ran a playgroup in our house for much of my childhood and I made close friends there, but I still felt isolated and different to everyone else.
I always loved food. We were able to help ourselves from the cupboards at home when I was young, with no restrictions. I believe a normal eater would just eat until they were full, but I could not stop. I put extra food in Mum's shopping basket and would gorge on leftovers at night with my friends. My friend’s dad owned a pub and when the half-eaten plates came back, I would pick chips off them, chatting as I did so, to my friends' astonished faces.
From as far back as I can remember, I felt irritated and impatient with people. I would interrupt and correct the teachers at school and have furious rows with my family, then later tell them I loved them. I lived in a fantasy world. My favourite times at school would be writing stories and acting. My emotions were a rollercoaster, up and down. Food made me feel better, soothing all the anxiety. I never realised how dependent I was on food, until it got much worse.

Cycle Hagley Park on the longest night of the year with bright lights!
The theme this year is to support all new cyclists & families who are riding our new cycleways
Join us on our 10th annual Christchurch NZ Solstice Night Light bike ride!
The purpose is to brightly support safe & healthy and fun cycling for commuters, kids riding to school and for all recreational cyclists.
Meet inside the Park at the Armagh Street Mickle Gates from 5pm for a 5.30pm start.
This is a family-friendly event but organisers urge that you ride with your children as it is pretty dark after 5.30pm. And you must bring at least one bikelight - it gets dark on this ride!
Bling out your bike, helmet and person with as many lights as you can. Prizes for various categories including the brightest bike, of course!
Our bike light ride starts at the Hagley Park Mickle gates ( where Armagh st meets Park Terrace) and we ride counter clockwise around the park on the footpath or road - your choice. Afterwards we will adjourn to the Pegasus Arms on Oxford Terrace and other local eateries for a beer or hot chocolate and discuss how to help make Christchurch a world class safe cycling city!

我被邀請去藝術館 The Ａrt Ｇallery入口處的大廳，6月13號星期天下午1:00~2:00去教一堂太極拳。是6月份的大眾活動之一。
參加者應該全部都是新生。
藝術館說他們上次辦瑜伽班有80多人參加，就不知道太極拳班會有多少人參加?
不知道您是否練太極拳呢？或認識打太極拳的朋友，到時候可幫忙一起去，站在第1排帶著練，後面的人才比較好跟。會的人多，氣場才會更好。
我已經把楊氏太極拳的八式又再簡化更動了一些，變成比較適合初學者可以大致體驗一下太極拳，有前進及後退。當然初學者是不可能在一堂課學會太極拳的，就是希望他們體驗一下太極的剛柔並濟。
如果您打太極拳，願意幫忙的話，或有認識這樣的朋友，請告知您的朋友，請加我的微信，我的微信號是sandyjsky
如果有人願意幫忙，可否請於這個星期天，6月6號的早上10:00~11:00來我們Aidanfield家，我稍微解釋一下，調整過的簡單楊氏太極拳是什麼樣？大家練一下。
謝謝您的幫忙。
Hello everyone, just putting this out there to make people aware, i have rung and spoke to NZTA on the phone :-)

It contrasts to this week's heavy rain event, which caused significant flooding in some parts of Canterbury, but not in Flockton Basin.
Many put this down to the fact the Christchurch City Council has spent tens of millions of dollars in the past five years protecting those areas from flood waters.

Kiwi startup My Little Pub is taking backyard beers to a new level with their mini Irish, English and Scottish-themed pubs.
The business idea, hatched during the Covid-19 pandemic, came after Christchurch interior designer and My Little Pub founder Steve Rosling was asked by a friend to build a pub with Guinness on tap in his backyard, so he never had to leave home for his favourite draught again.
