NZPost service

I purchased a signature required courier bag from NZPost as a return envelope for sending an important document back to me a few days ago. But when it was delivered, it was left outside my house. I never met the courier, nor signed anything as a receiver.

I purchased a signature required courier bag from NZPost as a return envelope for sending an important document back to me a few days ago. But when it was delivered, it was left outside my house. I never met the courier, nor signed anything as a receiver.

I think I am not the only one who paid extra money but not received the service promised. How do you deal with this, folks? Any place or any way to complain that we can make sure the important documents will be delivered safely according to their promise? Anyone took NZPost to the court, and the result?

As the summer months approach, many people look for ways to keep their homes cool without relying entirely on air conditioning. One simple and cost-effective method is the use of curtains. This article will explore how curtains can reduce heat and provide a more comfortable living space.

How Curtains Reduce Heat
Blocking Sunlight: Curtains act as a barrier to the sun's rays, preventing them from heating up your room. By closing the curtains during the hottest part of the day, you can reduce the temperature inside.

Material Matters: The type of fabric plays a crucial role in how effective the curtains are at blocking heat. Thick, dense materials like velvet or blackout fabrics can block more heat compared to sheer or lightweight fabrics.

Colour Choices: Darker colours tend to absorb more heat, whereas lighter colours reflect it. While dark curtains may block more sunlight, they might also trap more heat. On the other hand, lighter curtains can keep a room cooler by reflecting heat away.

Insulating Properties: Some curtains have a special lining that adds an extra layer of insulation, keeping the heat outside and the cool air inside. These can be particularly effective in maintaining a comfortable temperature.


Benefits of Using Curtains to Reduce Heat
Energy Savings: By reducing the need for air conditioning......

Have you been to any home auctions lately?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

An entry-level home in Hamilton’s popular Christmas suburb has sold for almost $100,000 over its reserve.

With the reserve set for $800,000, Lodge listing agent Blair Pointon said the owner was “blown away” when the three-bedroom house in Harrowfield went for $890,000 at auction this week.

Have you had an operation in the private system?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Three failed eye operations in one week left Surindur Ralm effectively blind for months, unable to drive, work, write or cook.

The Waikato man then forked out $25,000 for further private surgery when he couldn’t get a date for the “urgent” procedure through the public system.

Ian from Hamilton East

Anyone else hear a very loud bang or explosion at 3:45am? Seemed to echo around the whole area - much bigger than a car backfiring etc. Heard sirens out on Cobham Drive about 15 mins later. Hope everyone is ok.
