The recipient is directed to reply within 72 hours, or a warrant will be issued for their arrest. This email is a scam and anyone who receives it should not reply under any circumstances.

Although some versions of the email do not specifically reference money, other similar scams involve the recipient being issued a ‘fine’ when they respond.

Quake-prone Hutt bridge a threat to rail network.

www.thepost.co.nz...

Metlink appears to have been blindsided by a Hutt City Council report that an overbridge is earthquake prone and a potential threat to the rail network.

A report to Hutt City councillors on Monday noted that the Cuba St Overbridge is being undermined and could fail in a moderate earthquake.

The overbridge is used by 18,000 cars and trucks a day, and is one of the main arterial routes in the city, taking traffic from central Lower Hutt to Petone. The Wairarapa/Upper Hutt rail network runs under the bridge. Annually it carries 570,000 commuters and 370,000 tonnes of freight.

Other parts of LH community boards were removed a couple of years back.
IMAGINE how many water leaks… View more

Redefining retirement

Shona McFarlane Retirement Village

The meaning of retirement is changing. It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love.

It’s no longer just about saying goodbye to work - it’s now an opportunity to try something new or keep doing what you love. Rather than hanging up their hats, many of today’s retirees are redefining this phase by staying active through part-time jobs, volunteering, or even launching new careers.

Living in a retirement village doesn’t necessarily mean you’re done with work either; rather, it offers the opportunity to explore different activities, pursue long-held passions, and discover new interests. In fact, many people find the lifestyle gives them more freedom to stay engaged and active through work they enjoy.

Hutt Heritage.

Sandra from Normandale

Interesting reading.
Aglionby was the name of early Lower Hutt, [today only Aglionby St bottom of Normandale Hill Lower Hutt exists.]
Aglionby never came to NZ with Early settlers...but had tattoo heads from Sydney Australia sent to him. Read the book.
