Dear Neighbours, Are there any of you seeking to hire a skip bin in the near future? Are you by any chance wanting to waste four hours of your time in a futile endeavour to organise a skip bin delivered to your door? Are you a masochist who wants to indulge in four hours of self torture? Look no … View moreDear Neighbours, Are there any of you seeking to hire a skip bin in the near future? Are you by any chance wanting to waste four hours of your time in a futile endeavour to organise a skip bin delivered to your door? Are you a masochist who wants to indulge in four hours of self torture? Look no further then, go straight to Envirowaste website and see what a world class un-user friendly web site looks like. Whatever you do, don't call in to their office in Aotaki St in Otaki, because (nice as the staff were) they can only direct you to the website. Now this isn't only my experience, after trying without success to organise a bin, I explained my difficulty to a client, he is undoubtedly not unintelligent. He gave up in frustration also. This isn't a case of buyer beware, because they won't let you buy. Try Kapiti skips.

Our 9 mth old kitten had multiple bouts of on/off uncontrollable diarrhea over the course of the last couple of weeks with very, very bad smelling wind. Took her to vets (twice -$$$) and nothing showed up except when we stopped her night feed of Oscar wet food and just left her on biscuits it all cleared up. Thinking this was a bit odd I googled this brand and found an article from the UK (www.dailymail.co.uk...) where the same product - but called Felix instead - had affected thousands of peoples pets. Have rung Purina and given them batch details etc from the sachet I had left but they weren't overly concerned.
Just wanted to let people know in case their cat/kitten was experiencing similar issues.

No surprises here then that one of Nationals golden boys has been unmasked as a bully who severely beat a younger boy at his school. This was no schoolyard tiff.

This was no schoolyard tiff. It was a vicious beating, reportedly using bed legs as clubs to injure the boy. Was Uffindell just too young to be charged with GBH, or was he, as a member of a privileged set, let off lightly and the whole incident hushed up?
Even more amazing is Uffindell's response today. He has spent most of the morning minimizing his actions with the media and sees no reason why he shouldn't stay on in the job. In a performance worthy of the president of Brazil, hes insisting it "was only a little bit of a bashing". Why anyone would consider voting for these thugs is beyond me.
It is this culture of schoolyard bullying that has underscored the National Party's policy on welfare. They are still content to attack those who are the most vulnerable members of our society, indulge in name calling such as "bottom feeders" and roll out the punitive action for anyone who steps out of line. In addition young people in need of job seeker assistance, must deal with organizations deemed worthy by National. Those in the National "pull yer socks up" club, rather than the somewhat more impartial services existing within our government structure. If you are a young person unfortunate enough to have to go to one of these meetings. Don't go alone.
