819861	2009-10-12 21:26:00	Come on, It must be a real ability, Various members of this very forum claim to have a version of it...... Very true - I have been able to foretell tears before bedtime every time I see some "user" (well, it rhymes) install Norton's. I haven't always been able to see just which bed time, but it's not many sleeps away.	R2x1 (4628)

I bet now if you ring up Waitaikere Council with problems of manhole cover blowing off in heavy rain Techscape/Balfinger Berger will be around in a flash to fix it. Another reason to get a super Auckland City Council.	prefect (6291)
819863	2009-10-13 01:18:00	Seems the WCC might be answerable. Betting the mayor won't be quite so keen to get his dial on the box now....	seltsam (13470)
819864	2009-10-13 02:08:00	Are they saying the council left lid off and then replaced ???	Cicero (40)
819865	2009-10-13 03:16:00	Are they saying the council left lid off and then replaced ??? The manhole would lift off and water would come pouring out in heavy rain," she said. "We called the council and some councillors and it has been looked at, but it's never been fixed yet." Ms Carrington said she had also wanted a fence between the properties repaired in case her children got over there. One of the reasons she moved was due to fear of her young child falling down the manhole. She had filmed how the drain reacted in times of heavy rain and the footage showed water rushing from the drain, under a garage and toward the creek at the back of Longburn Rd properties. Ms Carrington said it was drizzling on the night Aisling went missing, rather than raining heavily. One current tenant of the house Ms Carrington once lived in, Janice Neho, told NZPA the drain was "dodgy".	whellington (15030)

I just can't get over the fact that they didn't search all the pipes with the cameras during the initial search. You would think they would have explored all options. Especially if they knew that the man hole cover had been off on the day she disappeared, then there was a strong likelyhood, that she had fallen down the hole. I think there will be some interesting developments in this, as I believe someone has dropped the ball. Saying they had kept an 'open mind', which is why they re-searched the drain, is saying that they hadn't searched it fully initially. It may not have changed the final result, but it would have saved a lot of money, and resources, especially since police resources were taken away from that bloke who had disappeared.	robbyp (2751)

The manhole cover was ajar about 10cm and the first police officer looked down the pipe and there was no sign of a body. "He called out and did not hear anything other than running water,' Mr Davey said. The officer then searched towards the stream and 15 minutes later returned to the manhole, climbed about two metres down the larger access pipe after moving the manhole cover back. He shone his torch down the smaller 375mm drain at the bottom and could see nothing. He also called her name but there was no response. "He believed he could see five metres up into the drain and five metres down the drain." The drain was searched for a third time later in the night by search and rescue searchers, Mr Davey said. During the search Aisling's father Alan Symes also climbed down the pipe and looked for his daughter, said Mr Davey. He said the manhole cover was about 600mm wide and weighed about 20kg, something well beyond the capacity of a child to move. He said part of the police inquiry would be to establish how Aisling got into the drain. Mr Davey said when the search was reviewed this week a decision was made to use specialist techniques to search the drain and the camera probe was put down. "We searched both ends of that drain with cameras. Even as a result of that camera search we were still unable to locate or identify Aisling." The drain had a history of blockages and the decision was then made to dig up the drain, Mr Davey said. After five hours of digging and using concrete cutters they reached the drain. "Unfortunately, once we did cut open the drain we were able to see Aisling," he said. ------------ Maybe she fell in after they looked down there?	whellington (15030)
