Just checking it's legit. Had a young guy at the door collecting for IHC. I'm surprised in this day and age of scams, companies would send people out door to door.
I'm a bit wary at this time of year heading for Xmas.

My last name is Rule. I'll write it down for you, you silly old duff.
I was born on West Coast. I moved here when I was a little girl.
I like doing pictures here that’s why I like pictures. Doing art. I like going for a walk. I come here Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
My sister, I go see her on Saturday. Have a cup of coffee, at home. She's five, nine. 59. I'm five, seven, 57. This year I'll be 58. My birthday's on a Thursday. I'm having chocolate cake and pizza. And lolly ice cream.
Some people are noisy. Nicholas, and Peter and Chris, they are my friends and that giggly girt over there.
I get headache sometimes at other work, because noisy.
I'm happy here. I could go for a walk if I want to. I'm good.”

Emergency services were called to the address around 5pm on 7 October and following initial enquiries a homicide investigation was initiated. Police are now working to establish exactly what has occurred however we can confirm that we are not seeking anyone else in relation to this matter.
Yesterday evening Police located and arrested a Christchurch man aged in his 70s and he is expected to appear this morning in the Christchurch District Court charged with murder.
The investigation is in its early stages and Police are seeking to establish the movements of both the victim and the person charged in the lead up to her death. We are very keen to hear from anyone who heard or saw anything suspicious between 10am on Friday 4 October to 4pm on Sunday 6 October in the Mt Pleasant Road or Bellview Terrace area.
Police and ESR are carrying out a forensic examination of the woman’s address and this is expected to continue over the coming days.
A post mortem is still to be conducted however next-of-kin notifications are underway.
Our thoughts and sympathies are with the family at this extremely difficult time.

Whilst this can be both an exciting and nerve-wracking time, encouraging independence helps children to build confidence and life skills.
Here are five tips for parents to help ease the process and ensure peace of mind.
1) Establish a Safe Route
Before school starts, take some time to practice the route with your child. Take the safest roads and pathways and be sure to cross over roads by using pedestrian and courtesy crossings, or at controlled intersections with traffic lights. Make sure they know key landmarks so they can easily navigate their way to and from school, and where they can safely go to, to ask for help if needed.
2) Teach Stranger Safety
Have regular conversations about the importance of staying aware of their surroundings (people and vehicles), and how to respond to strangers if approached. Teach them about 'safe strangers' like other families with children their age, shop assistants, and others in your neighbourhood who they can approach if they feel unsafe.
3) Equip Them with Emergency Contacts
Ensure your child knows important phone numbers, including yours and any other emergency contacts. An Emergency Card or Tag is a perfect solution for this. It's durable and easily attached to the inside or outside of a school bag, providing them with essential details like emergency contacts and medical information if they need to give it to someone. In a stressful situation, children may struggle to remember phone numbers, so having them written down can provide reassurance and peace of mind.
4) Create a Check-In Routine
If your child has access to a mobile phone, set up a simple routine where your child checks in with you at certain points of their journey - like when they leave school to come home, reach a specific landmark, or arrive at school, this way, you know they're safe.
5) Empower Their Confidence
Independence is about building confidence. Encourage your child by supporting them to develop their own problem-solving skills. Remind them that they can handle situations by asking for help or using their Emergency Card or Tag if they need it.
Over time with your guidance, children can embrace the independence of navigating their own way to and from school while you have peace of mind.
An Emergency Card or Tag acts as an extra layer of safety, ensuring that in case of any unforeseen situation, your child has vital information accessible at all times, and you can be reached when needed.
