Hi all,
I’m looking for some ideas/inspiration please.
I work for a resthome and once a week we (gingerly) pile in the van and go for a drive. We are limited to approx. 1.5 to 2 hours total and depart from Hillcrest area... the residents are mostly dependent on walking aides so they don’t leave the van. Whilst they are just happy to get out it is nice to take them somewhere scenic... I’m thinking places with nice gardens, lake/river views etc. however need to keep in mind they’ll be viewing from their seats! Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Oh Dear.
Who would have thought there would any difficulty obtaining parts for 1970’s carriages?
"Some of the seats will also have pull-out tables so you can begin working on your way”
Only some (around half) so the other half miss out – unable to work.

Meet Squid!

This poor dude was found in a farm drain at 4 weeks old. He is a sweet loving boy full of energy and will need to be exercised daily.

He grew up around dogs and cats. He is currently in a foster home with cats, another dog & chickens. He showed little interest to the cats (especially if they are boss) but is not good with the chickens.

Squid has a beautiful nature and would make an awesome family dog and adventure buddy. Hes happy to do whatever you are doing and go wherever you go. He would love to join a family with another dog.

He has his basket in the lounge at night when watching TV and he settles down. He can be a little destructive if left on his own mainly paper and plastic so will require some training around this, maybe crate training would benefit him.

He has a real lovely nature and we get lots of sloppy kisses. If you can offer Squid a loving home with a big back yard, he would love to meet you.

Squid will go to his new home desexed, vaccinations started, microchipped & registered on NZCAR & council registered so an adoption fee of $280 is required.

Please PM us on FB to enquire: www.facebook.com...

Centre Place North likely to be sold

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

Competition with The Base and other sites is one of the reasons behind an intended sale of Centre Place North.
The CBD mall is owned by Kiwi Property, and chief executive Clive Mackenzie said the company had signalled it would be an asset for disposal.
However, it's not on the market yet.

Competition with The Base and other sites is one of the reasons behind an intended sale of Centre Place North.
The CBD mall is owned by Kiwi Property, and chief executive Clive Mackenzie said the company had signalled it would be an asset for disposal.
However, it's not on the market yet.
Mackenzie said the city was "going through a negative contraction" in retail.
"Unfortunately that's reflected in the performance of that centre."
Kiwi Property also owns the Base, in a joint venture with Tainui.
