Is this impacting you in a negative way? Are you not able to get the price you want? Or are you struggling to get a rental? Conversely, are you able to buy a home for the first time?
This is certainly one of the more obvious errors in a child’s writing. Knowing which one to use can be confusing.

Without exception, everyone was helpful, kind and efficient. So please be more patient with overworked hospital staff, they really could do with a little more praise, and thanks , for what they do, rather than what they don't.
So a Big thank you Whangarei hospital, from a very satisfied old bird 🤗

This one is a warning that supposedly your car rego is about to expire and you had better send them some money straight off.
Fake NZTA email - not too badly done except, in my case, the sender's email address was in the Japan domain. Also, the amount was a silly 80odd dollars.
Be careful … View moreThis one is a warning that supposedly your car rego is about to expire and you had better send them some money straight off.

I've tried to renew my car's rego online yesterday evening. Could load the nzta website, but the page to renew registration would not load.

I dropped them a line about this ..."we are currently experiencing high volumes of email, we may get back to you in 9 days" ... yeah, right, that will be useful.
This morning their whole website appears to be down. So if you need to register your car, you may have to go to the testing station, assuming *they* can get in.

Story below.
Many of the wards and corridors at all four Northland DHB Hospitals have been blessed with local art pieces over the years, which help create a more welcome atmosphere for our patients and their whanau when they spend time with us.
Most recently, Whangarei Hospital has been gifted works from Whangarei photographer Glen McMillan and Tauranga artist Sky…
Glen's images of Tui and Starling were shot in his backyard from his wheelchair and have captured the birds' unique colours.
When Glen was just ten years old, he fell from his bicycle and spent almost four years in hospital. He now uses a wheelchair as his walking has been affected.
Now 61, Glen has led a successful, happy life and has owned several successful businesses, three boats, and many cars, some of which he has raced over the past 30 years.
After investing in some professional camera gear and a concrete path right around his home, Glen has been photographing the birds that spend time on his large section and in the eight-acre native bush reserve that backs onto his property.
He said he loves learning and being creative and is now selling his work as wall art on his online store - www.homedecorideas.co.nz...
Anyone has a car for sale? I need to buy a car for my daughter to get to school & work. Can pay up to $2,000.00. Message me on FB or text 0210684996. Even easier... send me a photo. Thank you in advance.
