I have just tried to pay for two items from two different websites using a BNZ VISA card, and have been unable to do so because I refuse to use the BNZ Mobile App. It is required as part of an extended 2FA. I am looking at moving to another supplier of credit cards anyone else had this problem?

Did I hear right? The Clash - Should I Stay Or Should I go being used in an ANZ advert?

Bit ironic having The Clash advertising corporate greed in the form of a bank.

#Question for users of #Bookwyrm. I just set up an account on bookworm.nz. I have a csv list of books I have read in the past, how can I import this list? It is not one of the lists in the dropdown box, it is my own list.

Our medical centre has just put up some of its fees ($63 a visit) and introduced "Note that appointments running over time will be charged at $20 per 5 minutes, including for community services card holders. A standard appointment only allows 10 minutes of consultation and 5 minutes for your clinician to make notes. Only one item can be addressed safely in a standard consultation." (NZ$)

What sort of charges do you experience where ever you are in the world?

I have a downpipe that is 12cm in circumference. I want to attach some sort of flexible hose/pipe to it to take the water to the nearest storm water catchment on my property. Is there someone who can suggest what I should be looking for in the hardware store?

Anyone have any idea what this is hiding in the shrubbery. It looks like a spy microphone. t is connected to the grey box that is beneath the shrub. I spotted this on an old stretch of Highway 1 in Waikanae.

A few years ago we went up to Northland and took a walk through the forest to see Tane Mahuta. There was no sound from any birds. Speaking to the DOC guy in the car park, he told us the problem was pests.

I have just come back from a walk through an incredible small reserve near our house. The sound of birds here was almost deafening. They were mostly Tui, but I did spot some Fantails.

It is nice too no the eradication program is working.
