SCAM PHONE MESSAGE
Just found a recorded message on my answering machine. It claims to be from SPARK, saying there's a problem and they will disconnect my line within 24 hours, and that for further information I should press button 1. I'm really worried that I could be turned off even though I disconnected from SPARK about 2 years ago... NOT. The scammers are still out there! I suspect that if someone follows the instruction they will be connected to a scammer via a high cost connection, so be aware folks and ignore, do NOT follow the instructions and just delete the message. I have advised SPARK that their name is being used in this way.

Cow on the road
Our son was driving to town and on Woodfielda Rd near Northwood Rd in Swannanoa there was a cow walking around the road.
Our son corralled it up someone's drive so it was off the road.
Don't know if it was the correct drive so posting here in case someone recognises the cow.
