You can never have enough...

I've read two of those Jan, loved The art of racing in the rain & bought it for a granddaughter's birthday, & have also read We need to talk about Kevin.

We no longer have a local greengrocer. Or butcher. There were both of those & more,including an electrical shop at one time but the mall put paid to them all. There was also years ago, an excellent opshop & secondhand bookshop both sorely missed.

Perhaps Nicola Willis might address the high food prices instead...but I won't hold my breath.

Lilith anybody who believes Nicola Willis is serious should take a look what happened seven days before her announcement - Duncan Webb objected to a new WW supermarket being fast tracked and guess who ranted and raved about Labour being so shortsighted stopping it being built in a hurry Nicola Willis herself - her hypocrisy is worse than the last lot - she wants to break the duopoly one day but supports fast tracking an additional duopoly owned supermarket .Costco spoke out last week they have run at a loss for two years and arent going ahead with expansion - NZ is the most expensive country they trade in in the world - he said it’s nothing to do with the duopoly - we have the highest fuel tax which makes our transportation costs the highest in the OECD - power costs are high but the cost of supplies to the supermarket are extremely high - one meat processing plant reported 188% increase in profit last year but the supermarkets are blamed for the high cost of meat .Seriously how thick does Nicola think we are they just spent a million dollars trying to get businesses to invest here and now she is going to break up a100 year old kiwi company when all the stats show they are not making excessive profits .The biscuit and Icecream manufacturers are laughing all the way to the bank all their products are smaller but cost more and people don’t complain except to the supermarket staff !

Totally agree Jan. She is one dangerous lady. 

I think if she was dying of dehydration she is one person I wouldn't waste my spit on  ... ohh my wickedness is showing.
