@nzzp I bought my daughter a fitness tracker from Wish, it was $23 inc postage, arrived in 9 days.
So if I added 15% to my purchase (do they add it to the postage?) even if they did add to postage, $26.45...
It records her steps, her heart rate, her sleep patterns and blood pressure (although am dubious on this one) and obviously tells time.
It is pink, small enough for a 9 year old girl's wrist.
I'd have been looking at min of $50 for something with similar specs here...plus the 9 days was a great way for me to get her to behave or she wouldn't get the tracker
I bought a security camera on there as well (was mainly to prove to our neighbor her cat was coming into our house eating our cats food) camera was $45 or so inc postage I also bought a128gb micro sim for it, cost $3 + postage (amusingly think the postage was more than the card at $4 or something like that) Noel Leeming currently selling a 64gb one for $80.
I have an app on my phone to look through it, can swivel camera up and down, and about 270 degree arc, I get emails with a photo when the motion sensor is triggered...I didn't even check to see if anything in NZ was available for that price, simply assumed it wouldn't.
here is the little cnut of a cat heading back out after stealing my cats food
That's classic! Pictures don't lie

Had the same problem. A microchip reader cat flap is the solution - brilliant invention.
Can probably get one from overseas cheap - oh, umm...

@crucial sadly, as we have addressed the issue with them, they will suspect it is us that does anything to their cat...I have been tempted to drive it 10km away and let it go in a more built up area, it is friendly enough that it will probably choose a new owner.
I do often change my cat door to one way, so it can come in and not get out, then I torture it, but it doesn't seem to care.
Doesn't help that owner is a naturopath type and this extends to what they feed their cat, who clearly prefers our cats food to whatever rubbish they feed it.
I will add, at least it is a hunter and often see it dealing to rats and mice...whereas my 15 year old cat just sleeps and eats, gives it a hiding if he happens to ever catch it stealing his food.

Vegan? No wonder the cat steals food and eats rats and mice. Report the owner to the RSPCA and give the poor cat some bacon.

Letâs say you had a budget coming out that was a bit embarrassing as you had to reneg on promises like making dr visits cheaper and to make matters worse youâd been called on your fiscal shortcomings before the election and denied they existed .
What would you do to take the focus off it?
Probably a bit early to stage induced labour , go into high dudgeon mode over your outrage that people talk about your partner on social media is a good option though .

@snowy nah not vegan, but as you can imagine, has some very interesting views on things...only TSF can have politics to cats to woo
Load a water pistol up with Tabasco , I doubt youâll ever see that cat again .

From what I can see via google searches the "rumors" are absolutely outrageous, but still probably not as bad as the stuff that was floating around about John Key. That was next level.
I honestly hadn't heard of any rumors up until they did this big announcement - I agree I think they're trying to play the victim to take some heat off the absolute clustrerfuck they've been up to this point.

Legend has it that LBJ, in one of his early congressional campaigns, told one of his aides to spread the story that Johnsonâs opponent fucked pigs. The aide responded âChrist, Lyndon, we canât call the guy a pigfucker. It isnât true.â To which LBJ supposedly replied âOf course it ainât true, but I want to make the son-of-a-bitch deny it.â

Sorry to hear that. We had to do the same for our 18 year old ginger cat last year. He was also remarkably similar in appearance. He would have eaten TR's children rather than biscuits though so it's not Buster reincarnated.

Yeah Bumble was 18 too. But unlike Buster definitely more inclined to eat bikkies rather than the kids. He'd purr them to death. Ginger moggies are cool.

What was the John Key rumours?
Let's face it he's obviously a member of the Illuminati...
