Hi all.
Has anyone lost a black rabbit? There is one living in the roundabout at Travis and Frosts Road. I have seen him/her??? a few times. Dangerous place for an animal to live..I think it only comes out in the early morning or late at night when the traffic is at it's quietest...

“A lot of people don’t realise what protections they have when they buy consumer goods from a New Zealand business” says Neil Lancaster of Citizens Advice Bureau Christchurch Area. “According to the Consumer Guarantees Act, those goods must be of acceptable quality. This means that the product must do what you would expect it to, and last a reasonable length of time.”
Neil Lancaster says “The product must be fit for its normal purpose and in good working order, have an acceptable finish and appearance, no minor defects, be safe to use and durable. For example, if you buy a new vacuum cleaner and it doesn’t clean the floor very well, overheats easily or needs repairs not long after the purchase, then it is not of acceptable quality. Also, if you’ve arranged for the business to deliver the product to you, they are responsible for ensuring that it arrives in good working order.”
“Second hand consumer goods that are sold by businesses must also be of acceptable quality, though of course you shouldn’t expect a second hand product to last as long as a brand new one, nor that it will be free of dents or scratches. You do need to take into consideration the age and price of the item.”
“If something you’ve bought from a business is of unacceptable quality, you can go back to the business and the business must put it right”. They have to get it repaired at their own cost, or if it can’t be easily fixed they have to replace the item or give you a refund. The business can’t simply refer you to the manufacturer, require you to return the item in its original packaging, or offer you store credit instead of a refund.”
“Some people think that once the warranty expires then that’s the end of the story, but in fact even if something is out of warranty you still have the same rights under the law. You should expect what you’ve bought to last a reasonable length of time, regardless of the warranty.”
“If you do strike any problems with getting a remedy for goods of unacceptable quality, we can help” says Neil Lancaster “Just pop into one of our three Christchurch locations; Ara (CPIT), Fendalton Library or Hornby Library or call 0800 367 222 (free to call from a prepaid cell phone).

Hi everyone, I volunteer at the Wildlife hospital based at Willowbank. We are in desperate need of a clothes dryer as the other one has stopped working. It would have to be a donation though. If you have one hanging around that you don't need, get in touch. Thanks.

We are pretty proud of this beautiful young lady making the CGHS German Trip for 2019. Laura will be busy fundraising for the next 2 years to make the trip of a lifetime. If any one has any fundraising ideas or wants Laura to babysit feel free to contact us. At least I can be guaranteed regular Ute cleaning until further notice.
