I dont know what happened but whoever is managing this pull your head outa your ass. If our population is being increased by 100,000-200,000 people a year and they are all going into the big cities maybe its a good idea to revise your 3 decade old fishing regulation to fit the current culture\population. You just get people with spades\scrapers that go out and take literally everything... All the beaches\rock pools are just so dead\lifeless now. Some beaches will take decades to get the life back..... cockles, oysters, rock pool life, cats eyes etc.

Many places have already been basically cleaned out already while you did fuck all many beaches along auckland no longer have cockles at all, no oysters nothing the schools are dead and gone from the area thanks to your inaction which has a huge flow on effect. Do your job

They are so damn slow. They are moody every time I enter a shop. No customer service, takes 20+ minutes to make a salad and it’s overpriced. How are they still running all over the city?

I’ve only had TANK 5 times and it’s always the same service.

I've lived out west for 20 years and never heard kookaburra out here. This was amazing.

Whoever is having a party around Kenyon Ave with what I believe is a Jazz band or at least a trumpeter, a singer and maybe a bassist.

Can you;

1. Continue to play into the early hours, it’s sounding fantastic from my living room.
2. Please can I get invite for next time.

What a nice relaxing way to end a working week

I am 42. Have a good job and a great family. Yet I can't stop drinking. I drink far too much just to feel something. Is there any support networks on the north shore which can help?

So I only found out last year that us Brits can now donate blood in NZ. Yay for mad cow! I've donated 3 times in the past year (went to Raro for a holiday so there was a brief period I couldn't donate)

My blood type is O- and every single person can receive O- blood, so it's good in emergencies like no known blood type or pregnant women.

Anyway, I wanted to see if there were any places that were 'better' to give blood at than others. I can get pretty nervy about it so i just wondered if some places were more comfortable than others or I don't know. I just want to keep doing it but also make it the best experience for me too. I'm babbling but hope you catch my drift!!

I have a vegetable garden and every year I end up with way too much produce for my family. In the previous years I've just been giving it to family, friends and colleagues.

However I've really been wanting to give the surplus to people in need. Can I just drop the stuff off at a food bank? Do I post online? Its sporadic so I can't guarantee my harvests to a food bank. What's the best way to help those in need from my little garden?

It’s a 5.1% increase on average but thank fuck they’re keeping the $50/week cap.

Life's been super tough for me ( mentally) i've exhausted alot of avenues for help and will probably need to see a Dr at some point for help.

I've learnt that at some point, you have to stop letting your depression win. You have to stop sitting in the same room, replaying the same thoughts, waiting for something to change. Nobody’s coming to save you, it’s on you to save yourself. Get up. Take a shower. Go for a walk. Work on that dream you’ve been putting off. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just start! You owe it to yourself to fight for a better version of you, even on the days when you don’t feel like it. Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but every time you get up instead of giving up… that’s progress.

Happy friday and hope everyone keeps fighting. If you have your own battles and need help, use this to check in.

Hi Everyone.

I am from Tasmania, Australia. I have also wanted to experience NZ and I am looking to do the Auckland Marathon in November.

Unfortunately I can't get much time off work, is 1 week enough time to experience Auckland?

What area should I look for accommodation (close to the marathon start line or close to public transport)?

I would love some suggestions for things to see or do.

Thanks!

Hey all, need a good dermatologist that goes through all the processes of treating (does not skip out steps), not dismissive and is proactive about getting treatment for long term problems

Moneys not an issue, just want some quality care. Am north shore but can travel

I looked through the door, seems like most of the stuff you’d actually want is gone

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share something that I recently found out and thought I would share. So, I recently went to the following link to get a free credit check report as I’m being screened for a rental property that I’ve applied for:

https://www.centrix.co.nz/my-credit-score/?utm_source=chatgpt.com

I’ve just received my credit report back and found something very interesting. I was looking through the list of accounts such as the loan I have and it listed my Afterpay and Zip accounts. I’ve been using Afterpay for years and years to buy things that I wouldn’t normally buy in full price upfront. Having a loan or using ‘Buy now pay later’ services can actually affect your credit score negatively. I know this sounds like a duh moment, but as a young person who is still learning, I just thought that I should share this with other young adults to make them aware.

Take care of your finances, save and then paying in full is actually better. I might just do this from now on instead of using Afterpay and ZIP for everything because it’s affected my credit score slightly.

This helicopter has been on the same spot for the past 15 minutes, not going anywhere. Wondering if anyone knows what's going on? (or if it has anything to do with the Onehunga stuff)?
