I use a prezzy card for online purchases in NZ - you register it so you don’t have to spend it all at once and use it like a credit card - anywhere that accepts visa - which is practically everywhere .Recently my son was travelling overseas and had increased his credit limit - his card was hacked - the bank refunded the money but it took a long time to get his money back .Thank goodness Popeye you were onto it
I can only speak from experience but some of my family in the medical field left the country before this govt got in - mandates drove many overseas and the chaos that quickly developed in the health restructure proved too much for two very experienced ICU specialists who jumped the ditch .I see Dr Levy is going to sort out the 14 layers of bureaucracy the HOD specialists are trying to Wade their way through so hopefully things will improve .It’s not only money that is driving our health professionals overseas but that’s just my experience .Don’t get me started on the restructuring of the Polytechnics - again my sister and her fellow lecturers have endured the chaos - it’s unbelievable and it’s the students who are losing out while my sister has been paid huge amounts of money - this government has put the brakes on the gravy train
Seems Kamala Harris is getting the backing she needs - actually it’s brilliant as the spotlight has gone off Trump very quickly - he would have been hoping the patch would have held the attention of the media far longer
There is a real cat fight going on at Ahuriri a seaside suburb of Napier - there is a beautiful black and white cat called Sooty who is affectionately called The Mayor of Ahuriri- he was a stray but has lived in a luxury appartment with an older couple for years - he roams the village stopping at the Art Gallery or the Cafe to spend time or down on the wharf to meet the fishing boats who give him fresh fish - anyway he is getting older and the vet put him on a special diet so he needs to go home every evening - for some reason another lady keeps shutting him in her house - so weird
