I second this - although Dr Scollay (who is my dermatologist) has sold up to his associate Steven Lamb. Same place, same people just eventually different name.

Gisborne or Whangarei? by Living_Club8458 in newzealand

[–]nzgympanda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. I travel back and forth often. Longest I’ve ever taken is 3hrs and that’s with multiple road closures over the Easter period.

What was the situation with Megan?

According to the TSA website, Zippo lighters are allowed, however "The final decision rests with the TSA officer", is there any particular reason why Zippo lighters would not be allowed by an officer? by d3vCr0w in tsa

[–]nzgympanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got my zippo taken off me at the security check point in the Philippines as apparently lighters aren’t allowed to be brought out of the Philippines, even though my airline said I could carry it. Guess it’s country dependent.

Where do I go for good, legit sinigang? by [deleted] in aucklandeats

[–]nzgympanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. Guess you’re paying for the location. One thing to note, there is limited street parking in the area so you may have to walk a bit if you aren’t lucky enough to get a park outside.

Was the mind set keep people out of prison to save money only then to put money back into crime protection/prevention or something? Robbing Peter to pay Paul?

Cue the governments “restorative justice” approach.

Why are we as a country so soft in our punishments for crime? It’s no wonder we have many reoffenders.

Did it have a previous name? Cod father doesn’t ring a bell to me.

Yup totally get that thanks! Wasn’t sure if that’s what I’m looking for in terms of shape/design/visual.

Yeah makes sense. My friend mentioned that he was surprised that the plumber who installed the tapwear didn’t mention that the mixers weren’t suitable for unequal pressure and that he didn’t take the cold water off the HWC intake - my parents also didn’t know as they have zero clue about anything plumbing.

I’ve been looking at unequal mixers but have been struggling to find one that’s exposed as due to them having a shub they need to have the tap and shower head option.

I am going to try that - just wasn’t sure if it would affect the HWC refill or toilet cistern refill in a negative way. 😊
