Theft - Fossil Watch and Torlen Hair Straightener
Hi Neighbors,
We have couple of instances when things gone missing in the past from our our house and carport and open areas. We were stupid to sit realx as those things were not so important. A few weeks before our TV was stolen from the living area. We tried to investigate however did not find any clue. I think in last couple of days, I have a few things missing from my room. A professional Torlen Hair Straightener, and a Fossil Men Wrist watch with dark bule dial (very similar as in attached image). The watch has very much sentimental values as it was gifted one. I would very much appreciate if you can inform us about any unusual activity on Vercoe Rd or come across with these stole things. I could offer a generous reward to one who provides any leads for the stolen stuff.
Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?
Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.
At a time of council cash constraints, Te Radar - real name Andrew Lumsden - catches the eye on the council’s Facebook page, where he currently features in three “explainer” video clips about Hamilton’s water services.
Do you think this was the right decision? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
