Last night my daughter and I spent a couple of hours driving round the burwood , lower shirley area and the bottle lake plantation looking for MEE MEE or mimi. Shes just a small girl about halfway between a medium sized dog and a tiny one.
Her mums been out looking everywhere. She could be all the way between nth beach and Shirley and may be injured. Please check your gardens or empty sections.
As a dog lover this distresses us. We saw her but she was gone by the time we got there, probably hiding.
This is also up on NEW bRIGHTON REPUBLICS messages online so check there for updates.

Like the people in this article i was told last year that i had to change to wireless as copper lines were being phased out and i would have no phone or internet if i didnt change. I also know of some elderly people that have been told the same information. Just curious to see how many others are out there who have been told the same, It seems this is not the case....The incident comes as the Commerce Commission assesses a complaint that Spark may have breached the Fair Trading Act by encouraging copper home phone customers to switch to wireless broadband through a practice known as "inertia selling" – an allegation that Spark has denied.
