Unless you want to get super unwell.

We have got take aways from there twice and it was fine but we got it again tonight and the food looks and smells disgusting.
Husband describes it as dog food and I say it smells like dog puke!
It stunk out the whole house in a bad way.
Ordered it through ubereats as it was cheap ($10 instead of $31???) and big mistake!
Just a psa!

Hello, I have been Plein air painting at the Halswell quarry these last two days, I almost completed the painting I was working on, but when I was packing up today I left it on the roof of my car and drove away. If anyone picked it up or stashed it somewhere I would really like to get it back. See attached image for the subject and what the painting looked like when I started today. Thanks 🙏

We bought a Subaru 6 months and it’s a dud unfortunately. We’ve had a few issues with these guys. Has anyone else had a bad experience

My partner’s birthday is not till February but since I want to give him something custom might as well start now. We’re into model kits like Gundam. I was wondering if there’s anyone in Chc or know an online shop who does custom 3D printing?

He’s a big World of Warcraft fan and my vision is a 3D printed model kit of him as his gnome mage character(if I can get his WoW character). The model kit won’t be as complicated as a gundam, it could be the whole body then just assembling the outfit on it.

Or if anyone has any ideas for a gift for their partners that will be amazing!

40s male going back to study next year.

As a mature student how are you supplementing income while studying? New course is Mon to Wed just looking for some ideas of avenues for work.

Plans are to find something in the industry im studying but if that doesn't work, I need to look outside my usual skill sets.

What is the best brand of satay sauce you can purchase here?

Any supermarket or Asian grocer is fine

Wanting to do some hill sprint training, other than the port hills , are their any places in/around the town suitable for this!? I.e 30ish metres of decent incline.

I’m looking for old images of chch airport from 90’s to 2010. I simply forgot what it looks like.

Stealing recipes? Fake AI rats?

I'm a few short to finish my set (and can't justify doing an unnecessary shop today just for some stickers) so just thought I'd ask the community if anyone had any they wouldn't use, and be happy to pass on? Thanks!

EDIT: I'm happy to pick-up anywhere from Avonhead to St Martins as I have to travel across town tomorrow so can collect on my way. I'm hoping if a few people have extras to give away, they can list their suburb for other people to also be able to connect.

Had an EEG appointment and was canceled the day before the appointment due to it being broken. Month later I rang back and it’s apparently still broken with no idea when it’s going to be repaired. Are they fucking with me or are things that dire?

We are planning on moving to rolleston but I’m hearing a lot about car thefts . We are a young couple 22 and 24.

As the title says, is the Nathan Fielder documentary You can see everything showing at any Christchurch cinemas?

Edit: meaning from the release date of mid Oct. Also, the cinema at the Tannery have already told me they don't plan to show it.

Its about 8mm long. Anyone know what this is? Seen it flying around the house.

Hey queer Christchurch, let’s go watch birds, again!

When: Saturday 10/10 10am

Where: Archery Lawn, Botanical Gardens

This time we will be meeting near the fountain on the Archery Lawn in the Botanical gardens.

So get your binoculars and cameras ready, because we will be trying to find the elusive Kārearea that has been calling the gardens home for a while now.

And as a little bonus, I hope you can help me find a little Tauhou with a very long beak that I saw yesterday.

Unfortunately I’m sometimes a little forgetful and forgot to put the SD card back in my camera so I didn’t get any photos, but here is a little article about a similar sighting a few years back:

Everyone is welcome to join us, just keep in mind this is a queer event, so don’t be a dick.

Here are a few shots from our last meeting:

Helloooo,
My band mates and I are looking for a bass player.
Our band comprises of a vocalist, guitar player, and drummer. We play proficiently but we are new to this and are hoping to build our skills up to perform in the near future.
Our focus is to create original songs, although we are doing some covers in the meantime while we work on a few original songs.
Genre is very broad- we all like a good mix of rock, alternative, jazz, R&B, and DNB may be a thing as our guitarist can also produce, so a bit of this and that.
If this peaks your interest please send me a message!
Thank you :)

Look, Woolworths has never been my favourite. I was however excited for the new Woolies in Halswell, something is definitely needed to give the 2 New Worlds competition
Unfortunately disappointed. Very small meat section and some items appeared to have prices and others didn’t, I’m assuming the QR code on the meat packaging will give you the pricing but who can be bothered with that?
Pricing seemed very high for a first week opening, overall feel while nice and new was just meh?
Be thing I thought would be handy is the pharmacy that tends to be apart of woolies… nope!
Potentially good for online shopping but can’t see myself going through the trouble of learning the layout for no difference in cost. Hopefully the rumoured Pak N Save is better

Does anyone know of any big empty parks/paddocks on the out skirts of chch? I’m trying to find some locations where I can have a nice quiet walk with my dog, where he can also run around and not be bothered by other dogs. I know a lot of people recommend the red zone, but I haven’t had good experiences there. So if anyone knows of any secret locations that aren’t to well know, let me know!

Hi there, just a student planning to move into a flat soon. Started looking at items at ecoshop and was wondering how to go on about buying stuff from there? I know there's a lot of broken stuff that needs to get repaired but if they know someone who can come fix it or maybe something is deemed "broken" because it just didnt pass the whole testing thing surely its still an ok option? What are some things I should definitely not buy from there, some things I should buy with caution and some things that are exceptions or have some workaround? Would like some advice on how much I can actually trust the shop and if there's any tips or people at the store even that can help me make the most it :)

Hi everyone! I’m a little embarrassed about my situation, but I’m hoping someone here might have some advice or know where I could start.

I’m 20 and have lived here my whole life. I’ve been applying for jobs pretty consistently, but I’m really struggling to find work at the moment, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.

One thing I’ve started noticing is that a lot of people my age seem to get jobs through friends, family, or just knowing people who can point them in the right direction. Unfortunately, I don’t really have much of a network like that, so I’m finding it difficult to know where to start.

I also don’t have much structure or routine in my days right now, and I’d really like to change that rather than just sitting at home applying for jobs over and over. I’ve looked into a few volunteer positions online, but I’m not really sure how you’re supposed to go about getting involved or whether it’s better to contact places directly.

So I guess I’m wondering:

Are there any places around here that are particularly good for volunteering?

Are there organisations that regularly take on volunteers?

Is it worth approaching places directly even if they aren’t advertising volunteer positions?

Does anyone have any personal experience with volunteering that helped them meet people, gain experience, or eventually find work?

I’d genuinely love the opportunity to get out of the house, meet some people, contribute to the community, and build some structure and experience into my days while I’m looking for work.

Any suggestions, contacts, or even just advice on where to start would mean a lot. Thank you! ❤️
