check if your rangehood and bathroom extractor fan are properly vented

The bathroom fan also just vents into the roof space. So if you are able to access your roof space, it might be worth checking. Makes me wonder how many issues with mould and damp in New Zealand homes are caused by this kind of thing. Take care and Merry Christmas!

Have you copped a bus lane fine in Christchurch this year?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Hey Christchurch drivers,

One 270-metre stretch of bus lane in the Garden City cost drivers more than half a million dollars in fines in just 12 months.

Hey Christchurch drivers,

One 270-metre stretch of bus lane in the Garden City cost drivers more than half a million dollars in fines in just 12 months.

Nearly 6000 fines worth a total of $740,250 have been dished out for driving or parking in the city's bus lanes since the end of November last year, with just one bus lane responsible for well over half of that.

The stretch between Mona Vale and Deans Ave on Riccarton Rd, which opened in late 2018, has proven a major money-maker for the Christchurch City Council, netting the authority more than $560,000 in just 12 months. A total of 3828 fines were issued to drivers caught in the lane – an average of 319 a month.

Have you copped a bus lane fine before? What for, and where?
