This time last year I purchased two of this type of watch:
GIFT GPS Outdoor Sports Smart Watch Mens iOS, with ladder straps, and converted into English from Chinese.
One is a black strap and the second identical watch is black with red ladder strap.

I bought one for my son and one for myself for my walks at Westlake Park. My son said he did not want a Smart Watch, and I could not get the hang of it, so they have languished in their boxes.

I'm sorry that there is no photograph but they are available online for pics........My old camera card does not fit into my newish laptop.

These watches have never been worn

A saucy rebrand brings te reo Māori to Kiwi fridges and dinner tables

The Team Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Are you looking for a new pantry staple? A Canterbury restaurateur has launched his own te reo Māori-branded tomato sauce after boycotting another for “bastardising” the language.

Hi neighbours,

Are you looking for a new pantry staple? A Canterbury restaurateur has launched his own te reo Māori-branded tomato sauce after boycotting another for “bastardising” the language.

Fush owner Anton Matthews has teamed up with Barkers to produce Kīnaki Tomato after removing Watties from his Christchurch restaurant because the company poked fun at Māori place names in an advertising campaign.

Matthews, who has become well-known for championing the country’s indigenous language, is proud to have te reo Māori on sauces displayed on his tables.

When he went in search of a new sauce to accompany his kaimoana (fish) and chips in January, they picked a sauce they loved, and asked the Geraldine-based condiment producer if it could collaborate on a label.

“I’m really stoked that they’ve taken a chance on us.”

I have been in the Cosmetic Industry for over 20yrs in Australia & NZ. We offer all beauty treatments, however my passion is making a difference to your skin! We have an amazing LED Light Therapy Machine that can do 4 different colours at the same time for different problems on your face.

I bring in Mismo Skincare & Mineral Makeup from Australia as I couldn’t find a NZ product to back, that was natural but also active enough to make a visible difference to my customers skin & at a very affordable price!

To give you an idea of how potent Mismo is, they include a lot of Hylauronic Acid in many of their product range, but its not just a minimal percentage of the product like many of the large companies do, but Mismo uses Pharmaceutical grade Hylauronic Acid, that helps replenish moisture that is lost over the years to keep your skin plump & hydrated.

Kate Murney doesn’t remember anything from the first time she was flown to Christchurch Hospital, but she won’t forget the second time.

The 67-year-old mother of three was rushed to hospital in December 2013 with acute septicemia, a serious blood infection. Her family was told she wasn’t going to make it, but miraculously, she survived.

She returned to Christchurch Hospital on Thursday to visit the new helipad atop the new Hagley Acute Services building and to thank those who saved her life.
