Still getting these BUT now have Caller ID. Useful link below:

Interesting tip - new phone said when setting up, don't "add zero" if in Australia but do "add zero" if in NZ, so I set it to do that so a Hamilton caller would appear as 07 846 .... instead of 7 846 ....
My first call was from 00 784 62.. - that's from a Caribbean island so I didn't answer. Had 2nd thoughts and reset to don't add zero which caused the number to display as 07 846 2... - Hamilton no. which I should have answered.
It appears the instructions are out of date in the phone's manual. If you're in NZ on Copper lines, do add zero but if on fibre, don't

Do you have a most-hated intersection in Waikato?
New data has pinpointed Hamilton’s most dangerous intersections, including a high risk Cobham Drive turn off that a resident and driving experts believe should be shut for good.
While that turn into Grey St has resulted in the highest number of injuries, most crashes occurred at the bustling intersection of Te Rapa Straight and Wairere Drive.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
