1280321 2012-06-07 13:11:00 Surprise, surprise! Its Winter and there has been a snow storm, broken power lines, icy roads. Get over it, try living in Russia or Alaska. The news media always makes Kiwis look like pathetic wingers who can't think for themselves, drive carefully Ice is slippery! etc. Its high time the news media stopped making Kiwis look like a bunch of helpless idiots.
Please take note of your own Title.:D

1280322 2012-06-07 20:33:00 I was talking about them in terms of them saying 'nz housing's **** according to the WHO'. We couldn't get one if we wanted one, given we rent. 8ftmetalhaed (14526)

And according to the United nations NZ children are poverty stricken and the natives are oppressed and treated badly.

pfffftttt.

Anyhow, If you want better living conditions then improve them. Put on a jumper, invest more money in your accommodation, buy a house of your own (yes, effort maybe required, results are worth it).

Be your own man, and tell HRV marketing to suck a fat one.

Been the same for more than 30 years though.

Gee, that must be boring for you. :D

Yes, however it was quite early and a lot for parts of Canterbury at least.
Friend got stuck, took him 5 hrs to get back home after being sent home from work.

And so it's news, not much else dramatic happens in NZ, why shouldn't they show pics and stuff of large lumps of snow?

Haven't got bored in 30 plus years yet. Did a job in Takapuna first thing this morning and the sewer cleaning crew was talking about a chick council engineer. They were not mentioning how good she was at checking the job but you guessed it.

Forget it.
Get a woodburner and a ducting system in the ceiling, NOT an HRV.
