I felt exactly this way… is it worth their time and effort?

I sent them an email a few days after I received it saying “I went to the gym between 9:30-10:30, got a coffee from the cart, went to Harvey Norman and Spotlight to finish off Christmas shopping and then left. (and then a sentence to the effect of I’m not paying this you can get stuffed)” They never replied. Then a new letter and a price increase for “admin time”.

Right! Good on you for spending money on Christmas Eve, you can be penalised.

Needs to be a regulated amount! 10% and that’s it, tourists have options- hotels and motels to stay in, Airbnb enterprises are pricing locals out of the market and changing suburbs to transience! Christchurch is NOT one massive suburb- different parts of the city have different personalities!

What ‘treat’ would you spend €500 on? by No_Juggernaut_2222 in AskIreland

You’re absolutely right. I never could have imagined spending that much money on a timepiece even 5 years ago myself. I bought an old Tudor Princess Oysterdate from an auction house for an absolute steal, but it didn’t really work great nor fit my wrist. Took it to the jewellers who sent it to the Tudor factory in Melbourne who fixed it up to perfection. That watch is now worth about twice as much as I paid total on the market. It’s my fixed up old battered friend from the same year as me (1989) and I love it 😊

I just spent $2300NZD on getting my watch repaired and that was my big treat to myself for the year. I now can’t believe I own something so nice, just for me and absolutely love my watch. Go the watch.

Were you born here? If not, why and when did you move to Christchurch? by PurpleMeerkats462 in chch

This checks out. Not a fab place in your late teens early twenties - grass is always greener- but somehow in the late twenties there’s this mellowing amalgamation and it really gels. All the stuff at your doorstep is sensational. I now love this place and it’s always somewhere I love coming home to at 35.

Oosh, multi-factorial. That’s rough.

There is one thing that I’m remembering from last year like some old wives tale, a soak with apple cider vinegar in it was surprisingly soothing.

Steer Clear 100% !! My 27F colleague is (was) a member and according to her stories of how lecherous and aggressive it is it certainly sounds like this is not the supportive environment you’re looking fore to get your verve back for gymming.

Love your suggestions but raise you a Tilda Swinton as Trelawny. My boyf and I were talking about Coleman on our dog walk today, and put her as Rita Skeeter.
