I was on SH1 behind several vehicles and stationary when I was rear ended with quite a significant jolt and resulting damage to the rear of my silver Honda Civic. Just then my line of traffic began to move so I proceeded slowly straight ahead through the roundabout expecting the driver of the car behind to follow and sort matters. Unfortunately she didn't and went round the roundabout and right, onto Nelson St (SH6).
Please could you contact me if you were that person or if you know any information to identify this car and driver I would appreciate this very much so I don't lose my Excess and No Claims bonus. CCTV showed it to be a silver late model car, most likely a Sabaru Legacy. Please contact me on 0221558990
Thanks

The park, at Fox’s Island in Renwick, will feature agility equipment including weave poles, hurdles, a jump through and a balance beam.
The park will also include a water feature with dog bowls and waste bins. It will be a place for owners to meet and socialise their dogs and can be used as part of a valuable education programme for dog rangers and other local groups.
Marlborough has 10,000 registered dogs.
The park’s construction is 80% funded from dog fees, with the remainder coming from rates.
36,000kms, Automatic, Petrol, Cruise Control, CD, Radio, USB port. Very economical & zippy. Well looked after. ph 021 0564433

We can sell up to 50kwh to each solar buddy.
The usual rate for power through Trustpower is somewhere between 30-37cents /kwh. I am selling for 15cents/kwh so based on 30cents /kwh you would save $7.50 per month off your power bill.
There are no set-up costs for this. Trustpower will contact you and once you are set up you will start saving and it will appear on you next bill.
Text me if you are interested. 021 934233

Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.
KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.
"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”
40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz
