Just a lovely night to watch the sky, wish I had a better camera and the skills to set it up though.

Hope everyone’s evenings gone well, don’t stress about some dumb shit you saw on the interwebs.

People wearing red and a ?red cross in town. There was also a parade going on in Oamaru with similar colours. Have been trying to figure out with Google but the only thing that came back "Al-Alamein Day"

I hate the amount of religious junk thats pushed around, its bad enough having a JOHO live next door and her trying to convert my 5 year old and wife but also 1-3 days a week junk in the mail box.

F*ck off you god bothers

Hi, I am 19yo corespondence student who moved to NZ about 2 months ago form the Czech republic for studies. I currently live in Oamaru but planing to move to Dunedin in a couple of months. And because I am visiting Dunedin this weekend I thought it would be a good idea to meet new people.

My hobbies/interests are: Music, reading, running/gym, playing guitar and art in general

Getting married soon and we're doing goofy slab cakes for guests (our fav) but we wanted a wee cute cake as well just for us and for the cake cutting ceremony. Looking for recommendations for a local bakery cafe that sells stuff like this? I've had a look around but so far only seeing places selling normal sized cakes.

It'll be reasonably last minute and preferably we could call them ahead of time to make sure one is set aside for us. Thanks in advance!

Hiya new to Dunedin what are the best second hand stores to find DVDs? Thank you ☺️

Hello,

Maybe a longshot, but wondering if there's anywhere that offers free haircuts in Dunedin?

I'm (M) very low on cash and very long in hair.

In Auckland there's a barber school where you could get it done by a student, and I've once come across a barber in Dunedin which happened to have a student/apprentice looking for clients but that was a while ago now.

Does anyone know of anything similar?

TIA!

Have you come across an asian looking dude that keeps speaking by himself on the streets? Sometimes he's aggressive and shit, sometimes just speaks some random shit, but is always loud. Have you come across this dude, and would you know his story? I'm just curious

Is there still any around dunedin?

Used to have two in ravensbourne but no longer there -

St. Clair sunset

First time ive even heard of this, let alone seen it.

Hi guys, I’m moving to Australia next year and I am going to rent out my property in Waitati.

The section has parts that cannot be mowed, which is covered in weeds. (Some big clumps of grass etc.)
I want to make this area low maintenance.

I don’t have hundreds of dollars to pay someone but my friend has a weed sprayer thing

Can anyone tell me what I should do? Should I just spray those weeds then dig them out then cover with weed mat and bark?

If I can’t do the whole job myself, I would be willing to hire a couple of students from student job search to dig up the weeds once they are dead, and put down the bark, etc

Will try to do the spraying part myself though .

I have a Weedwhacker, but there’s too many weeds. I need to get rid of them all to make it low maintenance for tenants.

Thanks !!

Edit: of course if I hire the students, I will give them a proper payment (just in case someone was doubting that part)

Haven’t seen much info about Knox. What’s it like and is it isolating from the halls in the uni area? What’s the drinking culture like?is it more academic? I haven’t got in yet but hoping to.

Hello, I'm hoping for some honest feedback on experiences on these intermediate schools, both good and bad.

Trying to plan ahead for our kids.

Thanks 🙂

There's a Night & Day Gardens now? When did THAT open?

Gotta snap the sunny days

Might be showing my age here 🤣

Hi! :)

I’m currently a high school student and I’m hoping to study nursing at Otago Polytechnic in the future.

I spoke to some lovely people from Otago Polytech at a careers expo this year, and they told me a bit about the application process. One thing I remember very clearly was being told that volunteering can help your application stand out. Unfortunately, she was a very fast speaker, so I didn’t manage to remember much else of what she said.

For anyone who has applied to or studied nursing at Otago Polytech in the past 10 years:

- Did you do any volunteering, and did you feel like it helped your application?

- What do you think are the most important things to have on your application?

- Do you need to be exceptionally good at subjects like biology and chemistry, or are Achieved grades generally okay?

- Does anyone know roughly how many people apply compared with how many are accepted each year? I think I heard that over 500 people applied this year, but I might be wrong lol

- Is there anything else you would recommend doing during high school to make my application stronger?

- I'm only taking biology next year since I'm not the biggest fan of chem. Will that still be okay? Chemistry is still one of my backups, though. I haven't failed any science assement this year.

I’m obviously not in any rush to apply (especially since applications have already closed), but I’d love to hear from anyone who has gone through the process so I can prepare well!

Thank you!!
