Diets and fasting never stopped me bingeing and vomiting
There was never a time I did not have a fascination for food. I regularly stole money and stole food thinking that it was normal to want to eat all the time.

There was never a time I did not have a fascination for food. I regularly stole money and stole food thinking that it was normal to want to eat all the time. Many people must have gone without milk when I pinched the coins out of the milk bottles of people in my street, I would rush to the dairy and then have the agony of deciding what to buy. When I left home and got my first job, my very first pay went on packets of bite-sized chocolate bars which were hidden under my bed.

Remember dogs and cats can't just change their stomach and sleep clocks in a few minutes like we are forced to do, to stay with the status quo.

This time I am going to throw a cover over the wall clock and tape over the digital oven clock. I'm sure one of ours reads the wall clock, the other one just has two settings - sleep and eat, sleep and eat, sleep and eat so daylight saving (an oxymoronic name, night light saving doesn't get a look in.) always disappears in the twinkling of an eye. The best thing is it brings the election drama performances finality that much closer. Cheers all. ps they didn't have the stupidity of daylight saving when this photo was taken.

New Zealand currently has no national cat management plan, allowing domestic and stray cats to roam and breed as they please. This can lead to the death of native species, not to mention creating nuisance for neighbours. Do you think some laws should be in place for our feline friends?

The existing 60kph speed limits on main roads like Memorial Ave, Aldwins Rd, Linwood Ave and Blenheim Rd could also be dumped in favour of new 50kph limits.
The proposals feature in Christchurch City Council’s draft Safer Speed Plan, released for public consultation on Monday.
