Covid update:

Gordon from Halswell

Last week's Covid figures show a reduction but still over 12000 infections Nationally and 2200 in Canterbury.
There is an irony with Easter w/e deaths being ONE and that could never happen !
Perhaps if people treated Covid the same way it might be controllable.
Yes, it is only one 4 day period, but it can happen, even with all the factors that are normally blamed for deaths, road conditions etc. If people drive safely there will not be as many deaths. Not rocket science.
If more people wore masks there would be fewer infections, similar logic.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱

Is it possible to actually 'talk' to a Facebook person.

Gordon from Halswell

For a while now, about three times, I have had my 'FB messenger' site blocked.
I think the very 1st time a message mentioned about 8 reasons why I had been blocked, but not which of the 8 and which post. I tried to contact them but I end up going around and around in circles.
I have found out what is prompting the blocking, which has, yesterday they DISABLED my account after I posted 6 photographs of a friend's DOG on Messenger. I then remembered the last time it happened, I had posted multiple photos, and 'spam' was mentioned as one of the 8 possible reasons for blocking.
So now I know the reason, how the hell do I talk to them about it?
