Of the roughly 5000 building fires in New Zealand every year, about 1000 are due to electrical problems.
The switchboard is the heart of the home when it comes to electrical, however many NZ homes still lack proper electrical protection.
The switchboard pictured contains an asbestos backing panel and outdated fuses which have zero protection against you or your family receiving nasty electric shocks. If your switchboard doesn't contain electrocution protection devices such as RCD's, then it is due for an upgrade.

Here's an interesting read regarding electrical & fire safety;

Orphan Lamb Wanted

Marie from Waikanae

Our recently acquired ewe Tilly gave birth to twins on Sunday night. Unfortunately neither of them have survived. It was very early for us to be lambing and it was also a very cold night.

Unfortunately neither of them have survived. It was very early for us to be lambing and it was also a very cold night. A first for me. Never lost a lamb before. However, Tilly now has an enlarged udder which I am sure is not comfortable for her. I am looking for an orphan lamb or even one of twins who is not doing so well that we could put to her. I still have Tink, the wee girl who perished, and often if you rub the wool of the lost lamb on the orphan, the mother will accept it and allow it to suckle. Can collect the lamb if there is one out there somewhere.

"North Island saddleback/Tīeke (Philesturnus rufusater) at Bushy Park on 12 July. Not the best shot of a saddleback I've taken, but they can be tricky busy birds, continuously moving in the dark undergrowth, tossing over leaves and dark mysterious lumps looking for tasty ground grubs. They usually only take off into a tree like this when being chased by one of their contemporaries in a noisy altercation about turf. Bird #87 in 2022."

To all those who have already or threaten to boycott The Mall because of recent events and discussions, there is some alternative news here.

All five escalators are now operating which means that the "going up" only ground to first floor moving staircase is now full of movement at full speed.

The Mall does have free parking afterall for 120 minutes as The Mall's own extremely convenient outside (the main entrance) parking area is freely available.

Spoke to a couple of retailers within The Mall who seemed unperturbed and say there is plenty of free parking close by for customers to park their vehicles.
