Hello Everyone ,

We went for a swim on 2-Aug-2018 and the worst we can imagine " Car got stolen" from the QE2 Christchurch car park and guess what this is not the first time and still the Council / QE2 have not posted any posters to inform that theft cases (of car and others ) have been reported from QE2. So please be very careful no place is safe.

Well my car was Toyata Ractis - 2006 Blue color but looks grayish . Please keep an eye and inform me or police if you find my vehicle.

The importance of a healthy food and good nutrition cannot be undermined, especially for people who are aging and people who have the risk of having diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. With the help of good food, they can increase their immunity and develop their resistance to all kinds of ailments. In order to stay healthy, everyone needs to eat a balanced diet that contains all the ingredients such as carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins, proteins as well as minerals. For the complete nutritional support, a person's diet should be full of fruits, milk and vegetables that guarantee maximum physical strength and energy along with a fit body.

Now, if someone will tell you that there is a dietary supplement that provides your body all the essential nutrients without exposing your body to the side effects or harmful chemicals, you won't believe. But Moringa extracts, derived from a plant called Moringa Oliefera is a breakthrough in the field of nutritional supplements. Moringa Oliefera is a tree grown in the sub-tropical countries like India. It is popularly known as elixir of life and all the parts of plant whether it is leaf or seed, have provided excellent health benefits to peoples of all the ages since ancient times. People living a hectic life and who have no time to exercise and get good nutrition, can get a great deal of benefit from Moringa products such as capsules, oils, extracts and powders.

With winter bugs doing the rounds, it’s worth knowing what the rules are about sick leave. So what are you entitled to?

• In general you’re entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave each year after you’ve worked for your employer for 6 months.
• You can accumulate any unused sick leave up to a total of 20 days.
• Sick leave can be used when you’re sick or when you need to be off work to look after someone else who is sick or injured (your partner, child, or someone who relies on you for care).
• Even if you’re a part-time or casual worker, you’re still entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave a year (once you’ve worked for 6 months continuously or for an average of 10 hours per week, and at least one hour in every week or 40 hours in every month).
• Your employer can require you to provide a medical certificate if you’re sick for 3 or more days in a row, and you’ll need to pay to get it. If they want proof of sickness sooner then they will have to pay the costs of getting the proof.

These are the minimum sick leave entitlements. Your employer can agree to give you more.

Check out our website for more information about sick leave and other employment rights and responsibilities. If you’ve got questions get in touch with a CAB near you, call us on 0800 367 222 (0800 FOR CAB), or contact us online.
