Poll: Have you ever challenged a parking ticket?

It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

Kmart's list of 31 recalls

Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.

The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?

Hi People,

I am not wanting to start a conversation regarding if immunisation is right wrong good or bad as that is not what this is about. I sincerely hope you and your families and friends stay well.

Please read and pass on as you feel appropriate:

Copied from Health Nurse that was emailed today.

A message from your Public Health Nurse:

We have a child with measles in Hawkes Bay. Measles is a serious, highly infectious viral disease that is easy to prevent through immunisation. We suggest you release the following information again to your whanau and wider community.
If your child has had two doses of the Measles, Mumps and Rubella (MMR) immunisation they are protected.

As there is a high chance that measles could spread throughout Hawke’s Bay, we urge you take the following steps to make sure your child is protected:

Check your child has had two doses of the MMR immunisation.
o If your child only has a record of receiving one dose of MMR they should have another as soon as possible
o If your child has no record of MMR immunisation they should have one dose now and a second dose FOUR weeks later.
o Immunisation is FREE from your GP or Practice Nurse.


Please make sure you have a copy of your child’s immunisation certificate, so you can show this to their school if required. If your child has contact with a person with confirmed measles they may be asked to keep away from school for up to two weeks if there is no record of them having been immunised against MMR.


Immunisation is highly recommended as it protects your child and helps prevent the spread of infection in the community when an outbreak occurs.
If you require further information, you can find out more from the Ministry of Health’s website www.health.govt.nz...

Great Cards

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Hi there,
Today I needed to purchase a sympathy card and I was looking for one that was 'just right'.

Hi there,
Today I needed to purchase a sympathy card and I was looking for one that was 'just right'.
As a funeral officiant, I am probably a bit senstive to the wording that is found in cards and like many of you, I am sure, I didn't want to get one that would be 'not right or make it worse' - if that makes sense.

I wandered into Whitcoulls and wondered if I would have any joy finding what I was after.

A lovely young assistant came and asked me if she could help me. I told her what I needed and explained the reason I needed something 'just right'. She showed me where the sympathy cards were. Then she actually stayed with me and helped me look through the large variety of cards available. She looked and looked. I looked and looked and then a few we showed to each other to see if they were 'right'. I had three options in my hand and we discussed the pros and cons of each one. I was so thankful she was kind enough to stay with me until I had some good options. I then headed to the counter where the next lovley assistant took my money and spoke really nicely to me. She was also helpful.
Anyway, I know it was a card and not a car or a house, but I was so thankful for their compassion, kindness and courtesy and would like to recommend Whitcoulls in Hastings if you need a sympathy card.
I told her thank you as I left and she said that sometimes if people are wanting a more traditional card, and they can't find what they need at Whitcoulls she suggests they go to Manna.
That impressed me all the more - shops helping customers by recommending other stores - that is what will help all the stores to keep their doors open. Made me laugh as one day, I asked in Pascoes for a pen to engrave. Pascoes sent me across to Whitcoulls!
So thumbs up today from me for:
*Whitcoulls in Hastings - 228 Heretaunga Street West
* Pascoes
* Manna

Kind regards
and Happy Weekend to you all
