*    Gee it's hard enough as solo mum to pay rent, power, feed five kids and entertain them as well. With Xmas not far way the last thing I'm worried about is Freeview. Guess I will be throwing out our only second hand TV. Sorry my babies.

*    Freeview not so free. I struggle to pay rates, food, power, petrol. Have cancelled insurance and now TV I cannot afford to watch. Great. Thanks.

*    Boo. Coronation St is adult viewing. Since when has cooking become a programme?

*    Hope TV1 enjoys the absolute boycott in our house. Bloody cooking again! What with being swamped by rugby. Not addicted to Coro but was nice to get a sitdown at 7.30pm. B Omahu Road do up? More like patch up! Did the cheapest quote win the job? Seal lifting already! GW

*    Eva Bradley: Fear not, your dog is not old. German shorthaired pointers have one of the longest lifespans of dogs their size; up to 18 years. Ours is 13.

*    To FMJ: I agree but do you realise how difficult it is to buy NZ made goods? Anne.

*    Thanks to Hastings District Council for cleaning up years old graffiti in Chatham Park. SJW

*    To the lady who feels judged by pro-lifers: Please rest assured we are not judging anyone but trying to prevent other mums from suffering the same heartache.

*    How can the crash caused by the red light driver be an accident? He caused the crash through speed.
