lost and found
To the person who lost their Double Brown beer can sometime this last week...……...I found it lying in front of my letter box! Clearly visible so it was hard to miss! You are welcome to come pick it up any time! I am sure you have been worried about your missing beer can. Perhaps because it 'accidentally' fell out of your car, perhaps it all of a sudden 'flew' out of your open car window, wanting to see more of the world! Of course you are aware just like every New Zealander that lost cans like yours are spoiling our Green and Clean image and are polluting our world, so of course you would like to come pick it up so you can dispose of it the right way! As for all the 'lost' Take away coffee cups, candy bar wrappers, empty water bottles and plenty of boozy cans and bottles that I regularly pick up from the Neudorf road berms......they are still waiting here to be picked up by their rightful owners! By the way......drinking alcohol while driving is frowned upon here in New Zealand. Just so you know. You are welcome.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
