It seems people will do anything for somewhere to live ...

Simon Smith Reporter from Western Leader

A landlord of a west Auckland property was shocked to find that his evicted tenants had sub-let the garage to a family with three children, who were using a bucket as a toilet. (The pic is rubbish left behind after eviction.)

Police are aware of a number of items that have been purchased with counterfeit $100 notes, predominantly in the west Auckland area, however, police believe the offending may be wider spread.

The counterfeit money which consists mainly of $100 denominations, has been used to purchase goods such as petrol, food and cigarettes from various retailers throughout Auckland.

“The majority of the offending has occurred in the Henderson, Titirangi, Te Atatu and Avondale areas, however we believe there may be more in counterfeit notes currently in circulation and we’re urging retailers to contact us if they believe they are in possession of these notes,” said Constable Brown.

“The notes are very poor quality and relatively easy to spot as counterfeit money, they do not have a clear panel and the paper they are printed on does not feel legitimate. On close inspection you can see they have roughly cut edges and black lines – it’s not too difficult for anyone to see they are not genuine."

If you have any information that could help our investigation, please contact Constable Rebecca Brown from Henderson Police on (09) 839 0694.

Alternatively, information can also be provided anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111

Social climbers - the comedy - is touring NZ!

Roger Halls Sparkling Comedy Social Climbers

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

Torrential rain and a flooded bridge keep them stranded for three days. What they get up to, to help pass the time, raises a few eyebrows and will have you laughing, tearing up and applauding enthusiastically as they bare all.

Of course, it’s not just souls that are exposed, there’s a little nudity, a cracking thunderstorm, explosions, screaming bloody murder, ghostly stories, a birthday celebration, a séance, a drunken party, confessions, meltdowns and revelations that will keep you and your friends entertained throughout.

Perfectly timed for your own social group’s ascent into summer, don’t miss this hilarious play when it comes to a town near you in November.

Killing rabbits as pest control

Doaa from Henderson

Is any one aware of this?

Is this happening in Auckland? I found a rabbit a week ago and today it is dead.

What do I do with it? Report it to council or bury it? or call someone to pick it up?
