  • Cracker: Home (Is Where I Want to Be),

    Our first home (Tauranga) sold a few weeks back after only 4 days on the market.
    But now we are having trouble finding what we want here in the Bay - there is not much on the market! (in our modest price range anyway).

    Danielle is spot on for reasons for owning a house - its not all about the $!

  • Hard News: When it's Not Okay,

    I agree with you about the interviewer. At first her direct style of questioning made me feel uncomfortable as it seemed a bit accusing... 'hey - she's not the 'baddie'. However as the interview progressed I could see that this meant that she could be just as direct in her answers instead of stepping around issues.
    By the end I had tears running down my face.
    The women interviewing looked like she had been cutting up onions for a lasagne too. :-)

  • Hard News: Sunday blues, and we're on Sky,

    Thank you! That's a piece of information that eluded the customer service a few weeks ago... Much appreciated.

    You're very welcome!
    ...and you didn't have to wait in a phone queue listening to the worst music evah either. :-)

  • Hard News: Sunday blues, and we're on Sky,

    Gio:

    I'm actually resisting the upgrade because I haven't quite worked out if I can set the decoder to change channels at preset times, which is a must for me (I don't want nothing to do with MySky.) You can do it with the ancient cable box that Telstra provides, believe it or not.

    i have ordinary digital SKY without MYSKY and we can book programmes using our remote. When a programme has been booked it automatically changes channel at the right time. You can 'unbook' also if you change your mind.

  • Hard News: When that awful thing happens,

    I didn't know Len Snee but I know many people who did - some of them knew Len very well.
    By all accounts he was a fantastic man, extremely well liked and respected in the community.

  • Hard News: When that awful thing happens,

    I agree with all Mathew Poole has written on this post - well said.

    With regards to Radio being the 'STAR' - keeping the story vibrant and real


    This is absolute rubbish. Some of the comments/rumours on the radio were absolutely untrue. This caused a lot of concern/worry for people listening.
    You should not let people go on air who are just repeating rumours.
