My rant for the day

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Is it just me, or is it bloody inconsiderate of bin companies to have their drivers emptying wheelie bins at 4.45am?!

Does that happen every week and I don't hear it, or was this morning special?

I could not believe it. I thought my shed door was banging in the wind and got up to walk … View more
Is it just me, or is it bloody inconsiderate of bin companies to have their drivers emptying wheelie bins at 4.45am?!

Does that happen every week and I don't hear it, or was this morning special?

I could not believe it. I thought my shed door was banging in the wind and got up to walk across the wet grass, barefoot, in the dark, to check. No, the door was secure. Then, as I walked inside I heard it again, along with the rumble of a diesel engine.

What the h&^%!

I don't know about everyone else's, but my bin company says to have my bin out by 7 am. Who on earth empties wheelie bins in a residential area at 4 bloody 45 am? If anyone can tell me, I'll happily ring the company and complain. I get that the people have a job to do, but that's worse than the courier drivers who used to turn up and ring my doorbell at 5.15am.

Seriously, can they not see it is dark out and most people who don't have to get up that early, or who have/have not been kept awake most of the night with coughing kids, or babies, are STILL ASLEEP and would like to stay that way!

A little consideration would go a long way to making life more pleasant. We already have enough stopping, most of us, getting a decent nights sleep (snoring partners, coughing kids, domestic worries, finances, study, the future, the past etc), without rubbish collectors adding to the strain.

Or, is it just me?!

A matter of life or death

Jan and Ron from Akina

FIREWORKS we love or loath, I'm definitely in the loathe camp, but that is because they are often instrumental in killing our canary and finch chicks.

Like thunder, fireworks can kill chicks in the eggs, and, if the chicks become disoriented in the aviary hey can hurt themselves or die of shock. Ive also seen horses injure themselves due to fireworks. Its a high cost all round.

Hungry, wet, cold and stressed is no way to start the school day (if it doesn’t stop them from getting to school) but for over 295,000 Kiwi children living in hardship that is the reality. This can impact their educational growth and lead to a lifelong pattern of underachievement. There is a way to break this cycle; by providing simple things like food, shoes, socks and raincoats, so kids can arrive at school ready and able to learn. KidsCan's aim is to prevent children in hardship from becoming adults in hardship by giving them the start in life they deserve.
