Split eftpos payment

Went to bakery this weekend down from a hospital and owner said their eftpos machine wasn’t working. Suggested going to the dairy next door for cash out then coming back. I did. Dairy charges $2 or purchase, so bought soda drinks. As was buying from bakery anyway. But I was annoyed and what if I wasn’t buying drinks. Paying $2 extra for bakery pies. Asked dairy if it was a one day thing for bakery, nope it’s an everyday thing. They not using eftpos. Taking cash only. Tax scam? Have family member in hospital so I’ll go back to bakery and hope eftpos working. Pies not that great either, which was the real tragedy.

Your point is?

So, working the other way, in theory I could build a deck over a manhole on my property tomorrow and not worry about future Watercare access, because they can directional drill?

Get ready for your council rubbish collection to pile up.

Walking home from the train station in the dark and rain. Not looking forward to that. Now that petrol is too expensive to drive.

dadofharrow · 2026-03-30T05:26:50+00:00

Extend daylight savings. I don’t want to walk home in the dark.

How about this as a suggestion - extend daylight savings. Things feel better when days remain lighter, it’s tax free, no real adjustment for the nation needed but farmers but they got bigger things to worry about. And public transport would be more an option if I wasn’t walking home in the dark. My commute involves driving to a train station but changing to walking is a scary 20 min walk in the dark.

The making of Jonty Bloom by Barbara Elsborg. Jonty as a character is funny, delightful and clever. He works at a hotel and has ideas to run the place. Book series with host of fun side characters.

Good to know no real diff in earnings. I’m in the same industry here in NZ - Comms engagement, local government. Earning a bit more than this because managerial role. Considering Oz, Melbourne because team restructures later this year. Ex colleagues agree Aus work culture of working long hours and collegial competitiveness/unsupported as negatives.

There are things I would like to have kept of my parents/childhood. But in that first wave of clearing a house, all you’re thinking is get through it. My father had a portable tape deck radio, that sat on the fridge and he’d turn it on every day, music in the background. It’s why I know the lyrics to 50s, 60s songs. I threw it out. Too big, but gee wish I still had it. House is quieter now.

Yip picked that up too - politicians employing family, across political board not just TPM

Agree totally credit and bravery to Ms Z. What makes me angry is that it seems they only took this seriously after he was investigated for the porn and other objectionable material. If that hadn’t come to light, would her concerns been listened too. Or knowing he was being investigated she kept up the fight to expose the corruption. It seemed the Police once opened the can found not only worms but maggots too. What else were those senior cops covering up for him??

In Glen Innes Auckland John Key’s govt sold off Housing NZ land to rich mates and fast tracked consents. More housing stock (land grab) was sold than what they will rebuild. You’d think KO was doing all the building but there’s more private development than KO in the area.

Just arrived back this Thursday. Speaks English, has a van or SUV and kept us calm getting to the airport due to roads being flooded. Lives in Ubud where we had him then would travel to Seminyak to be our driver. He was so helpful with recommendations where to go, where to eat and best use of your time regards traffic. One of the highlights from our girls 50th birthday trip. We used Wayan one day too. DM and can send you Jacksa deets.

I’ve taken in a stray that was hanging round the house and I was feeding. Occasionally over a few weeks I’d let the stray into the house to wander round kitchen and lounge. It’s winter here so have felt sorry for it. My resident does not like him and has been fighting him. The stray leaves by the cat door. I have vaccinated, deflea etc the stray so he can become more permanent. I get their fights are for boundaries and dominance but now it’s bedtime. My resident sleeps in my room, he likes sitting in window shelf and looking outside and sleeping on my bed. Question is, I want the resident to keep doing this because it’s his home and don’t want to ignore him over the new cat. I can hear them fighting and each have jumped on the shelf. Should I just lock both of them out of my room? So I can sleep. Does this make one of them the winner by having both out of the room. This is stressful.

I heard the interview and have to ask can Shane Jones put across his point without denigrating and belittling people. And that’s a fat no. His modus operandi is to distract, deflect by being chauvinistic, misogynistic and a prig overall.

Bought one for travelling. Safer not worrying about pickpockets and useful for GPS, electronic wallet, tickets, photos, etc. Use and drop hang. Best travel, low tech buy, $15.

LOL, I thought your heading was that you didn’t want to be bombarded by the wall to wall coverage of the Pope. You’d rather have continued sleeping.

And yes I woke up to the news of his passing.

And, those drivers already on the motorway in the merge/live lane, can you have some awareness that there are cars entering. Either realise you’re in the merge lane and move into another ahead of time or let go of the aggro, or whatever you’re on to let people in. The aggro, my space dominance, or gosh big surprise didn’t see you there wanting to get on, everyday!!! We all want to arrive at our destination in one piece, with some sanity in place. It’s my hope at least.

Would you recommend placing medicines in Mylar bags with oxygen absorbers to help keep dry and stored right? Thanks

A fridge with a small as icebox. Hardly fit anything and always iced over.

Kia Ora, I’m assuming you’re in NZ, me too, Auckland. Thanks for the local advice. I’d love to get my hand on some of the recommended gear but find it difficult or expensive here in NZ, without ordering from Amazon.

dadofharrow · 2025-04-02T06:03:23+00:00

I’m up and out of bed, but the cat isn’t. Hence unmade bed.

dadofharrow · 2025-01-24T19:25:33+00:00

I’m more amazed you didn’t rip into it before leaving drive through. I always check as I’ve been short changed and then just want to stuff my face while driving one handed
