Tuesday, 14:00 ish and Out Shopping

Peter from Kamo

First outing in over 4 weeks for me.


Bin Inn was open, against expectation, and it was a clear run for me.


Pack 'n Save - good, I rocked up with my walking stick and got waved straight in.THANK YOU. There were maybe 40 people waiting.
No wholegrain oats, so on I went ...


Countdown Regent - 10-15 people waiting, it didn't take long to get in. And it didn't take long to get out. With wholegrain oats, and some nice cheeses.



New World Regent - maybe 30 people waiting outside. Wait was a little longer than 10 minutes, but no more than 15. Checkout was really fast.


I can't post from my phone, so had to wait to get home to the computer. Hope this gives you some idea though ....

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
