New attraction for Kaiapoi as its River Queen officially opens

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

A group of pensioners will be the first aboard the Kaiapoi River Queen after it underwent a year-long renovation.

The replica paddle steamer, which runs on two outboard motors, has been renovated since it arrived in the North Canterbury town from Blenheim more than a year ago.

"Having completed a recent holiday of the Upper South Island, I made a couple interesting observations - has anybody noticed there seems to be no Rubbish Bins in the rest areas between Nelson and Murchison. Where are we meant to put our rubbish - on the side of the road, maybe?

Also a couple of Motels that we stayed in, had Signs Up saying that they recycle, and encouraging visitors to separate their recyclable waste from general waste.

Imagine my surprise, when I saw one of the motels owners/franchise holders put the container holding Recycled Plastic, into the container holding Landfill Waste, when he thought no one was looking.

Also, sadly, I observed the same thing happen in one of the Christchurch Malls. My question is, that a lot of advertising goes into telling us to recycle when in reality, .....

I wonder how widespread this practise is, that "gives" the illusion of doing the right thing.

Buy one, give one for Kiwi families in need

Raptor Rubs

Hi Neighbourly members, we all love a bargain, but buying a gift that really gives back seems like a much better way to kick off the holiday season, don’t you think?

Hi Neighbourly members, we all love a bargain, but buying a gift that really gives back seems like a much better way to kick off the holiday season, don’t you think?

We’re not sure who decided that Black Friday was suddenly a ‘thing’ down in our part of the world, so, as us Kiwis tend to do, we thought we’d put our own spin on it instead. One that is much more focused on community over consumerism, and equally about giving as it is about getting.

Curious?

Kicking off today and running through 'til Monday 2 December, we are doing our annual buy-one-give-one campaign.

That means for every Christmas Gift Box or Christmas Cracker set purchased, we’ll also give one to City Missions and food banks across the country to support families in need. Our aim is to give back to an organisation within the community that each of our customers live in.

The best part? There’s no car park congestion, over-crowded shopping malls or #walmartfights involved. You can shop online from the comfort of your own home, with the knowledge that you’re also doing good for fellow Kiwis in their own community.

You could say that our version of Black Friday is in fact a whole lot more colourful, adding brightness to what might otherwise be a fairly bleak Christmas for many families in New Zealand.

Together, we can make Christmas a bright and tasty time for families in need - and that sounds like a pretty good deal, don’t you think?!

Whether you’re buying for an avid foodie, a wannabe masterchef, a time-poor parent, or a student who needs help to step their signature spag bol up a notch, our Christmas Gift sets are guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser, are all gluten-free, with no MSG, and all-natural!

You’ll find more information about Raptor Naturals, our Christmas Gift Boxes and our Christmas Crackers on our website - www.raptornaturals.co.nz

Thanks for your support

About 30% of new applications are rejected by the Probate Unit. (Source: letter from Probate Unit team leader, 7 Nov 2019.) Almost all of those are submitted by law firms.
Applications prepared by Kiwilaw are very seldom rejected - and the small number of rejections is decreasing as we improve our guidance to clients.
However, clients like the reassurance of using their familiar lawyer.
GOOD NEWS!! Law firms can now use Kiwilaw's service to prepare probate-application documents efficiently and at a reasonable price.
So if you're an executor and you need probate, and you don't feel confident about doing it yourself with Kiwilaw's help, ask the estate's lawyer to use Kiwilaw's service ($390 to law firms, plus fees for their own attendances and disbursements).
