2 degrees
*  Have used 2 degrees all over NZ and Europe. No problem.
*  Totally agree that 2 degrees in the Bay has bugs with delayed messages and a lot of the time not even sending, Wish I hadn't switched from Vodafone after 11 years. SS
*  I am a satisfied 2 degrees user, not a problem.
*  Other thoughts Do you know how much Splash Planet would make by heating their pools during winter? And cutting prices? Would it be enough to get them out of debt, and create more jobs for the unemployed in Hastings?
*  Amalgamation of HCC & NCC would be a massive failure as far as improved efficiency value for ratepayers go as long as you have the same useless bunch from HCC involved that only know how to spend and not how to make savings. GE
*  Napier and Hastings don't have to be the same to be part of one big city. Variety is good! Cuba St is nothing like Khandallah but they're both part of Wellington. PR
*  On the open road I'll drive at 100km/h yet still cars overtaking me while driving at this speed! KH
*  Was at A&E during week and several times last year with dying parent. Once past reception you are OK. They can make some changes at front because the perception is you are being ignored. I sat for 15 minutes in a wheelchair at the counter with a completed form while reception staff talked socially. Did that mean an extra 15 minutes I had to wait to get admitted? WW
*  Homai te Pakipaki great programme totally ruined by stupid hosts. No need for all their rubbish. Downgrades the show .
*  Gascoigne street a mess. HDC have some guts and fix it especially parking outside Drs surgery. CSD
*  Cycle lanes are awesome. As the second fattest nation, we need as much help to motivate our fat, lazy rate and tax payers.
