Age Concern New Zealand and NZTA are looking for people for a photo shoot. We need people over 65 to shoot in a range of transportation settings. These include walking, driving, busing, on trains, taxis etc. and in different urban and rural settings. We would like to have a diverse mix of people, their friends and families. The images will be used for promotional materials and a consent form will need to be signed. We are unable to pay participants but can offer a koha grocery/petrol voucher. The shoot will take place in July 2018. Please email natasha.muir@ageconcern.org.nz if you are interested in taking part.

Nice lunch and good price.

Dean from Masterton District

Many people are quick to moan and complain.

This is the opposite.

I was thinking of getting KFC for lunch yesterday, but thought I would try something a little better.

So, i popped into "The Sultans Boofiya Kitchen" at 308 Queen Street, Masterton.

For $13 I got a lunchtime special of curry ( my choice was Rogan Josh ), fried rice, a big naan bread and a drink.

Got it home and dare i say, it was perfect.

I actually had enough ( for me ) for two meals.

The quality and taste were excellent and I think the value was outstanding.

The staff were also very friendly.

I think their menu is very good and is not all Indian cuisine, so a bit of variety for everyone.

I encourage you all to check them out.
