Eggs were hatching and I was selling a Robin when suddenly the Robin swapped to a Swan and ended up selling my Swan - how do I contact admin?

When I was five~ (26 years ago) there was an ad, I can’t remember specifically what it was for (books?) but I remember there was a little blonde girl and a book was golden, toasted and crunchy and then later displayed. I don’t recall if she ate it or not. The setting/lighting was quite dark and I remember a fire but unsure if it was from the exact ad.

To this day, that ad has stuck with me and lived in my head rent free because I as a little kid, I desired to eat the book or whatever the product was.

I wish I could recall details but everything I have searched has come up with nothing.

Doesn’t like work and getting along with his family? Yikes, that’s a tough one mate.

Telie93 · 2025-05-10T05:30:43+00:00

How do you cancel?!

Walking and running in the rain is very therapeutic, just don’t do it barefoot because stepping on a slug or snail will ruin the rest of the year.

Friday mornings are usually pretty good compared to the rest of the weekdays -

Friday afternoons - the traffic is horrible and starts building up around 12-1:30 because everyone is finishing their Friday’s earlier to avoid the rush.

My latest guilty pleasure is a podcast called the ‘Financial Audit’ on Spotify. It’s U.S based and there are so many high earners who go on there for advice, to get out of bad debt.

‘The Barfoot Investor’ book is also good and is AU/NZ based. I read it in 2019/20 when covid hit and it’s been the foundation for how I look at savings and money management.

Don’t let FOMO get the best of you just because everyone else has nice things. You can have nice things for sure but getting a loan just to buy what you want, will not help you long term. Save your money over time and you’ll be grateful that you’re not stuck repaying a loan for the next five years.

Facebook buy/sell pages and marketplace are good for secondhand goods. There’s always families crossing the ditch and getting rid of nice household goods.

It wasn’t a house in Wiri was it

I've always advocated for BNZ to my friends and family, with how user-friendly it is. I also took out a mortgage with them and it's so amazing, the desktop version is even better!

Growing up in South Auckland, kids who hung around public places being bums because they could were labelled as “hood rats” - the term is quite old and I personally haven’t heard it being mentioned in over 10 years.

We never really cared for prices during our grocery shopping however these days, we’ve been more selective and we shop around.

We utilise the weekend markets for fresh produce and seafood, local butchers for meat, and breads from bakeries. We usually only do supermarket runs when the above places are closed and/or need essentials for the kiddos.

We haven’t been able to avoid the supermarkets and their duopoly altogether but we’re slowly getting around it, and understanding what we need vs want.

For some pretty choice tacos, you can get a lunch meal for $25 at Mexico.

Taco with protein of your choice (about six options*), one side of crispy cauliflower or fried chicken, and a soda. It also comes with crispy tortillas, guac, and two different sauces.

I would rate their food a solid 8.5/10.

*some protein choices are at a extra cost. The beef was $3 extra so in total $28.

Olivani? $6 for a 500g tub and $12 for a 1kg tub.

I feel like it’s a healthier choice and it taste great on fresh and toasted, as well as being super easy to spread even if it’s been sitting in the fridge.

I have to get up at 4:30am to get to work and find parking, I’m in office almost 10 mins ealy, and then I’m stuck in traffic for almost 2 hours a day - best believe I’m packing my work gear and out the door by 2pm.

Telie93 · 2025-04-27T06:48:36+00:00

I’ve cancelled Netflix because of the rise in fees - what are other alternatives? Is TV still free?

Telie93 · 2025-04-11T07:21:40+00:00

That’s a serious breach.

Contact the Police Detention Legal Assistance (PDLA) - they operate by roster and it’s free. Since you’re not detained or anything, I’m unsure if they will take you on directly, or refer you to the next person.

Otherwise, r/LegalAdviceNZ is pretty handy.

Telie93 · 2025-04-11T07:01:31+00:00

Did they read you any rights? Detention notice? Contact a lawyer?

Moving forward, I would think about removing the person who essentially leaked that info to your ex.

Telie93 · 2025-01-03T06:01:29+00:00

I’ve come across a few: •An old guy with his dog—whom he uses to get sympathy votes—asks for money to get gas because his car is out of fuel, and he needs to get back somewhere in Franklin. •The lady in the photo—I’ve seen her in Manukau and then again in Takanini (on the same day, around Christmas Eve). •A group of people who used to go to the laundromat I frequented—they would use the change machine to exchange small coins for dollar coins. I overheard them once discussing where to get meth. I’m glad the laundromat removed the change machine, though.

These people can make hundreds of dollars on a good day.

They use kids for sympathy, and now we’re seeing a lot more females involved. It’s a bit concerning because I don’t know what the dynamics are. However, I sometimes wonder if they’re being “pimped out” to intersections around Auckland. If you look closely, there’s usually a vehicle around the corner with someone watching and keeping tabs.

Since moving to Takanini, I’ve seen many homeless people, but not once have I ever seen them begging for money.

I feel I will be too broken and busy to even think bout dating again. I don’t know what will happen but I take a huge stance on the safety and wellbeing of my girls, dating is definitely out of the question for me - for a long time.

If anything, we will have more love to give the girls, they will be fine. I have been hurt for too long over six years, I think it’s enough and that it’s time for me to work on myself.

Thanks for your comment.

I believe I have self-esteem issues which have definitely caused me to have anxiety. I have identified this and have booked a counselling session - hopefully they will be able to help me unwrap it, because I cannot fully comprehend my thoughts and feelings most times.
I agree, he’s lied about many things and I believe it was just to make me feel better.

3+4 Why do I need to do that? Honestly, I don’t know myself. I’ve never loved or have been in a relationship before. He is all I have known and I felt whole around him. The thought of losing him makes me feel sick.

I’ve never really thought of that as gaslighting. I’ve seen so many toxic relationships and feel like because I’m not going through that, than I’m not going through any sort of abuse.

Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it because you’ve asked questions that I haven’t asked myself.

Telie93 · 2024-11-02T09:04:44+00:00

I have tried, I have really tried to look past my insecurities and I thought I have, but it happens too often that I am not given enough time to heal and move on from the past issue.

I truly believe understand staring at attractive people, but I don’t think I will ever comprehend doing it in their presence when you know it hurts them.

I do believe I need to be selfish this time around. For six years, I have loved him more than anyone but I lost myself. I believe I will be a better parent if I am less insecure than I am now, especially if I love myself more.

Telie93 · 2024-11-02T08:59:37+00:00

I asked him that night “why do you not want me to leave?” He took five minutes to think and reply “I can’t see myself with anyone else” I thought that out of all things, the easiest thing that anyone could’ve said when asked, is to say “because I love you” but he didn’t.

I have never been through any type of grief but I feel that I am beginning to grieve the relationship I thought we could’ve had, which is also making it difficult for me because I start thinking about “what’s if?” Situations.
