On 9 January 2026, Sid was taken from us and dumped by our neighbour. We haven’t seen him since.

He had his GPS collar removed and dumped at the end of our street.

Sid was allegedly driven to ARC North Vet Hospital that morning, then dumped after at Weza Lane, Kumeū.

We fear the worst, but we won’t give up on him.

💰 $2,000 REWARD for information leading to Sid’s safe return.

Please, if you know anything, speak up. And if you don’t, please share. Thank you everyone who has shared potential sightings or sent posts of cats that might be Sid.

Sid is so loved, so missed, and deserves so much better than this. 💔

Im islander but these rugby fans are genuinely so obnoxious like first off its late at night in a random street go to the club or something and secondly if you want to go around being loud with your music at least let it be good like why are you playing random spammed cartoon sounds bc theres no way you genuinely listen to this unironically. I feel like an idiot complaining as a tongan and ik i should be used to it but the music is so ass i cant take it anymore oh my gosh

I think i just need sleep

❤️

4 songs in, apparent technical issues, no songs since. Total fizzer? Guess we’ll wait and see……

Her reaction is so wholesome <3

This is in Māngere East. Doesn’t even capture the bass shaking my walls.

I keep seeing so many drivers flying Tongan and Samoan flags from their cars. It’s ridiculously stupid and dangerous. I literally saw multiple cars with flags and poles sticking out on the highway. I bet it won’t be banned until someone gets impaled by one while driving on the highway.

Edit

Love the people screaming “racism” or calling me a killjoy because “it’s just a piece of fabric.” You forget that these large flags are often being held up by metal or wooden poles, and at 100 km/h, they’re pretty dangerous if they come loose, especially when they’re being held by someone or secured with tape... There are ways to celebrate safely with smaller flags or without sticking massive ones to cars.

Genuine question. Missed out on tickets at every opportunity online so my next best idea is to sit outside. Is this possible lol

Only slightly falic shaped

TLDR; just depression. Definitely wrong sub.

I need someone to talk to but I have no close friends since I migrating back to nz and having kids.

I was upset last weekend because I bought a new car about one or two months ago. Someone bumped into it when my wife was driving it. I was so upset because she didn’t get the plate number, didn’t save the dashcam, not chasing the guy who bumped into the car (but just got off the car and watched), not filing a claim, not getting the car fixed. I found the dashcam footage and made a claim to my insurance.

Because she hasn’t done those for 3-4 weeks, I was so upset, I told her names saying she is irresponsible.
And since then she was giving me a silent treatment, I call her twice when I’m at work. But she is been like no yes I’m busy gotta go hang up.

And my mother in law is staying with us for 6 months, so my wife can work. And today I snapped.

I always ask my wife before I go to gym after work. And one day after gym there was nobody at home. And it made me scared. Since my relationship wasn’t at the best. And it kept happening they take the kids away without telling me. So I told my mother in law, not to side with her and tell her to stop. This is my house and my daughters you can’t take them away I want to see them too. And only thing she heard was “my house”. Mother in law is on about how I talk down to them because they are broke I never did. I always thought she is dumb but not that. It’s not your house our house she said. No you are guest in my house. No I’m not I’m a family. And it has started with endless picking on my words. And she ran out the door. I’m not staying in your house, like it’s my asset when I only meant it as my home. I took two kids and went out look for her twice. She told my wife she was just out the door. Now she is going to staying at hotel - all her colleague and my neighbour all know this now because we asked to look for them and help them.

with my wife, since last weekend the silent treatment was bearable but taking kids away without telling me hurts. When the house used to be always full. I want to be acknowledged. I don’t drink I don’t golf I don’t fish. I have nothing but my kids.

Now my used to be only and best friend is saying I’m a violent person and she doesn’t need me anymore. She started studying medicine after we got married and now she can make more than I do.

It was just a random big fight would have ended as such without the mother in law.

I dunno… man I’m getting all bad thoughts. I lived wrong.

Do I care that my wife is from a broke family? No, I used to like that as she used to appreciate all the small gifts. She once was very into me, I still remember how she used to look at me in the honeymoon. I was the world for her and she definitely loved me more than I did back then. Probably it’s what I did to her over ten years that changed her. We haven’t had sex since the 15 months baby so… about 24 month. I asked for it but declined several times and I don’t try anymore.

I do mind losing my wife but not being able to see my kids for half of a time will break me. I really don’t want that. But after tonight, after my mother in law escalating shit too the moon. I think the end is near.

ETA: I want to add how measurably sad I am. Because my elder daughter has anxiety she sleeps with my wife on my bed and I sleep on the floor on a kids mattress. Lol what a loser

Instore now - much cheaper than the dairies. Be quick 😊

ETA - also now on shelves at Crackerjack for $8.50

I just want to get your guys opinion on this before I also consult a lawyer on monday.

On the 29th of July on my way home from uni, i received a fine notice on my windshield for a expired rego in the park-and-ride carpark. Immediately, the next day, I paid the fine and renewed my rego expecting it to be a one-time occurance.

However, six to seven weeks later, I get a letter in the mail of a reminder notice for the same expired rego issue. I rung them up only for them to tell me it was a new fine for another day that I had not previously known about. I tried to dispute it however AT rejected my claim stating that they can serve notice anyhow and it does not need to appear on my windshield. Currently, my options are take them to court or pay the fine.

I don’t know how strong my argument is since i’m arguing on a fair grounds basis where if i had previously known or been informed of that fine the issue would have been corrected avoiding me the other fine.
I feel as if i have a weak argument. Thoughts?

We have a couple of large arum lillies and a bunch of agapanthus in our garden that I want to get rid of. We have two small kids so finding the bandwidth to do it ourselves is hard. Wondering if anyone has paid an outfit to come in and do it for you and if so, whether you could share approx costs?

Just looking for information on how normal it is to have employed council workers running 5 to 15 limited companies sign off on consents where their own listed companies could be used. Is it just me or is this clearly a conflict of interest?

Just trying my luck - is anyone going to the Titanic exhibition in the next few weeks that would mind picking me up something from the gift shop and I could sort out retrieving from you? I have no interest in going myself - although have heard good things - but know someone who went and regretted not making a purchase at the time and would love to remedy this for them for Christmas.

Thanks, and enjoy the Auckland sunshine today!

I am searching for a place to go tonight with my friends. We wanna meet some people and drink something good. Where can we go?

Anyone know what happened? It's not on the fault map for watercare yet

Kia Ora! Does anyone know where i can buy hiking apparel in Auckland? Also, the best place to get a good discount. Appreciate all the responses (if there's any*)

I know this question is dodgy as shit... but is there anyone not doing anything for Halloween who would be open to a random person hangout? My friends and I have just been deliberating a situation and we're deciding who's house to host at and lowkey there's no best option. Does anyone have a living situation where they're able to make noise and would be down to do things like watch movies, eat junk, play card games, drinking games (not explicit obvi), and just hangout?

We're a group of 5-7 people in our 20s, mixed gender.

I know I said drinking games and able to be loud but despite that we're all respectful of spaces, clean, and (I'd say) down to earth. We would bring food, lollies, and alcohol. We're fun but not petty and not looking for drama, like we're chill.

Yes, technically we would be taking advantage of you but also we would love to meet some new people and make some friends. (Especially for a spontaneous event).

Shot in the dark 😭 but lmk, thanks!

Hi I want to get a single hard cover book printed but Im not sure where to check as most options are for self publishing authors which requires a minimum quantity to order. I want it A4 portrait
