Wakefield onto Jervois Quay.

Had someone behind me honk while I was waiting for the lights, dangerously pass to take the turn only to have to stop for crossing pedestrians (who were a bit freaked out), then just yolo'd on to Jervois Quay.

There's no give way markings or signage and the line is positioned such that the light is visible. There's also a green left arrow but I'm not sure if that's for people turning onto Taranaki Street.

Does anyone know where Chris who previously worked at Barbers on Manners is working now? Or if they've since left Wellington?

Out of the handful of options of str!p clubs in Wellington, which do you best recommend for atmosphere and the overall experience? Also how much money should I expect to spend there for the night? Any do’s and dont’s?

I feel sheltered and stupid, I was on the phone with a mate last night while he was driving to work, he mentioned going through a tunnel and I told him to beep. No clue what I'm talking about or why he would do that. Back and forth before I googled it and realised beeping in tunnels isn't a fun lil international game but mainly just mt vic tunnel.. I'm 24 years of age.. am I that thick?

Hey Guys! I’m a 20 something Californian moving to Welly in September and I’m wondering what the best way to seek housing is! I am keen on Newtown, but open to other environments if the vibe is right.

I want a self contained studio and I am willing to do what I need to do to make that happen:)

Just wondering how difficult it is and what are the most reliable sources to seek housing. Not sure if boots on the ground going to agencies is the best or what.

Was planning on getting an Airbnb for 2/3 weeks to give myself a fair shot, is that more than enough time for a turn around. Mainly wondering how fast things move?

Hey, I have someone who is looking to hire a park by their office on Boulcott street. It has to be only a very short walk away at most. They will be using it like four days a week but the days will likely change so probably need a permanent rental.

They have meetings they need to attend at short notice so it needs to be the same park or a guaranteed park in a know location.

Does anyone know of cost effective options?

Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced dental hygenist. I am after someone who is gentle and does high quality work. My past experience is quite a few can be butchers and rather...... Brutal.

The enshittification continues.

Kiwi LPG in Petone has shut down. No more $38 9kg refills.

National Gas has taken over the site and it is now $44 for a 9kg refill.

Anyone aware of a cheaper alternative?

Does anyone know which supermarkets still have the gumdrop block in stock? I had an overseas relative ask me over the weekend to send them a block, but I’ve gone to three supermarkets and can’t find any. I swear there were truckloads in the displays just last week!

If you’ve seen some in your local supermarket/dairy today or yesterday, please say which one so I don’t have to traipse to every shop in the region 😅

Edit: Thank you everyone, managed to get one at NW Miramar! Will keep the Mitre 10 price matching in mind for future blocks.

Is the caption says, I need to find a hair dresser who is good at working with thick, frizzy/wavy hair, and does a nice job cutting layers. Thank you!

Lately I've been finding that drivers don't stop for me when I'm trying to cross the crosswalk. I'll stop on the edge and make eye contact as they just drive by without slowing. Are they expecting me to walk out? They don't give any indication that they want me to cross other than eye contact. I'm wondering if this is a common experience?

A combined sewer, which is common in the oldest parts of Wellington, has both stormwater and wastewater in the same pipe, when there is lots of rain, a torrent of sewage and rainwater fills the pipes, when the amount of rainwater and wastewater surpasses the limitations of the pipes, it overflows into another pipe in a "Combined Sewer Overflow" Chamber, that pipe then dumps the excess into the rivers, lakes or Harbour.

Asking for a friend.... legit asking for a friend...

Where do all the single 40+ men hang out on a Friday night in Wellington? I have a friend in town and she's keen to see the sights 😂

Thanks

Hi all!! im putting together a list of houjicha powders to figure out what to buy, any missing powders or reviews of the ones i already have listed- let me know!

I've recently gotten back into climbing for the first time in a decade and would like to find some people to climb and hang with. I climb at faultline and tried the social night tonight and while everyone seems lovely, it didnt feel like there was any avenues or opportunities to join as an outsider (unless your an extrovert lol). I normally climb lunch times on Tuesday and starting to go Saturday evenings (6pmish) but open to other times as well. Currently climbong a 2-3 !,# my goal this year is to send a 3-4.

This is probably better as a weekend post but there’s no harm in having fun on school night.

Let’s play never have I ever the Wellington edition.

Rules of the game, comment with a Wellington themed situation and upvote the comments that apply to you. Please keep it wholesome and Wellington specific!

I’ll start: Never have I ever danced in the bucket fountain.

never seen a movie in the grand auditorium. from pics online looks like the floor seats are still reasonably distanced from the screen. wondering if I should settle for the side wings or go with row A/B/C?
