Office / Computer Chair wanted

Margaret from Paparangi

Hi, does anyone have a fully functional, comfortable, Office / Computer chair they no longer use, perhaps it is just sitting around not being used, taking up space? I had thought mine was comfortable enough, but working from home, and having to spend hours at a time in front of a computer screen … View moreHi, does anyone have a fully functional, comfortable, Office / Computer chair they no longer use, perhaps it is just sitting around not being used, taking up space? I had thought mine was comfortable enough, but working from home, and having to spend hours at a time in front of a computer screen certainly has proved me wrong! Please contact me if you have one and wish to either sell or give away.

I am looking forward to going to training school and continuing to socialise to let out some of my big puppy energy. I am estimated to be medium to large once fully grown. I am the girl who is always up for a cuddle and treats, and will generally be the bravest of my siblings. Being a young puppy, I do require a home with someone around for parts of the day. This will help build my confidence around people, ensure I get lunch, and help with general training. If you think I am the pup for you, contact SPCA’s Canine Team for more information."

Dear neighbours,

Please meet Alyce Read of Nelson, who uses her houseplant collection to connect with others and help them overcome mental health challenges. "You wouldn’t take a plant and put it in a dark corner and fail to water it and expect it to thrive. So we should look at ourselves that way," she says. "If we are not thriving in the way that we would wish, it might not be any fault of ours, it might be the conditions that we are under."

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ to paying it forward in line at a cafe - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, build a free community library for your street, buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re spreading kindness this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Recently, my PC has been hacked and the hacker used my landline to call a mobile phone.
Currently most of the landline are on WiFi; Once the hacker broken into the computer and will able to get your landline numbers, so that he/she can make calls without physically held a phone.
Please be aware any suspicious calls made from your landline, check your bill and contact your internet provider and police - the action is a crime - my personal view.
Naturally I updated all necessary protection on my PC.

To the HACKER:
I will use the opportunity to tell you.
Please stop your behalf. I have the date, time, usage and cellphone numbers, which you made the call.
Monday 8:58 am on 19 July 2021and used 3.25 minutes.
You are in New Zealand.
Please use your time to do good works instead hack other people’s property.
I forgive you, but you will be caught if you continue to hacking.
Also, your own convenience will reveal one day.

May God Bless All.
