Social housing?
- WCC Watch
- PHIL REID/The Dominion Post Now the reason I’ve been motivated to write something new for WCC Watch after months of inactivity is the disgraceful news that an 88 year old pensioner has been found dead in his Newtown Park Flat.

Below the line – shopping day
- Hutt Chick
- Shopping all done, and even have $2.15 left to spend! First stop was the riverbank market to get my fruit and vege. Rachel suggested I get a cabbage to make cabbage soup. After all, that was what Charlie’s family ate, from Charlie and the chocolate factory. And apparently the thing that goes best with cabbage soup is a cabbage. Other bargains were some apples and potatoes that had blemishes, and pumpkin which is in abundance at this time of year.

Below the line – starts in 3 days
- Hutt Chick
- From 22 – 26 August 2011, I will be living on $2.25 a day of food and drink to get a better understanding of the challenges faced by people who live in extreme poverty. I am trying to raise as much money as I can for Oxfam by participating in the Live Below the Line Challenge.
