Another bit of advice. Is. 50/10 broadband plan fast enough to give reliable Netflix viewing?

My phone speed/data is MASSIVE and great for all my video meetings etc, but we don’t want to have to reset TV password every time one of us leaves the house so we really have to have a minimum but fast enough home broadband plan.

Advice please. New home needs new broadband connection. I assume all speed promised are consistently delivered by all providers.So why not...

Advice please. New home needs new broadband connection.

I assume all speed promised are consistently delivered by all providers.

So why not shop for the cheapest (maybe Spark for fast, unlimited because the free Netflix saves me $20 a month)?

What are the honest advantages of going with any of the many smaller providers?

Am spending time with my birth father. I got to know him when I was in my 20s but his wife and other kids didn’t know of me.
I really look like him, and I treasure other similarities.
We both cycle.
Both love to sea and trout fish (he just gave me all his fishing gear).
Our favourite drink is a ‘fluffy’ with instant coffee stirred in - Lisa has talked me out of ordering that in a cafe - but now she can’t stop me as I plead genetics.
Of course there are differences, but the similarities warm me.

But we won’t avert this because ‘we the people’ are persuaded by billionaire funded media to stand up to stop WOKE people who want them to give up their RIGHTS to buy cheap $2 shit that goes straight to landfill, their RIGHTS to drive a huge Ute, their RIGHTS to fly wherever they want to see the world, their RIGHTS to a standard of living so much better than the WOKE people will let them have where they’ll be eating herbs and living in a cave.

Three weeks and three days til we get our new house. Four weeks and four days til we move in.

Very grateful to the mother-in-law for hosting us so kindly in the breach, but phew it’ll be good to move!

The oddest of things create a surprising soothe when you move back, after 35 years away, to the area you grew up.

This morning I am having early breakfast in the Wellington Railway Station cafe, where I used to have brekky with my gran on Saturdays, when we had caught the train into the big city to clean the Charles Fergusson government department buildings.

Good coffee, excellent cheese and onion toastie.

Just watched the trump Vance Zelenskyy ambush. That reporter who was so smug about the wartime leader’s clothing - the media perhaps should have made more of the fact that he is Marjorie Taylor-Greene’s partner.

Shameful. The whole debacle. Shocking departure from decency.

Having decided to move to Wellington for eventual retirement, for family and friends reasons, we are selling our utterly gorgeous Dunedin house. I must admit, looking at the ‘staged’ house pics is almost enough to make us change our minds…

When a country attacks and invades yours out of the blue, and third parties spend money helping you hold your sovereignty, I always throught it was generally agreed that the AGGRESSOR was liable for compensating for damage, maybe including what the third parties spent, not the OBJECT of the aggression.

Has anyone told Trump about this fair and reasonable approach?

I am still astounded that Upper Hutt Council offers NO kerbside collections. Not rubbish, not recycling. You have to take your own recycling to a central repository - so of course people will chuck it.
And you subscribe to a private kerbside rubbish bin for $380/year.

Last week the boys won ‘dog of the day’ at daycare (proud, much).
We have clearly been overprotective of Gordon the rescue - we told them of his worries, he needed to be in a small area with just one dog as he’s scared of dogs. They said when we picked him up ‘he seemed fine so we put him in the group’. Of 18 dogs. And he was fine. (Gary was too, but he’s a happy confident wee chap.)

But we are not immune. I remember watching colleagues having to erase all mentions of ‘poverty’ in a past central government life. All mentions of ‘climate change’ and global warming’ in a local government life.
