Wheee is the best place to get some elderflower in Dunedin? Keen to make some cordial for summer!

Good afternoon everyone!

Despite the weather not being the best, the rally at 2pm is still going ahead as planned!! Please wear some warm and comfortable clothes (and maybe even a jacket) and be ready with your voices!!

Here are some chants for today;

Leader: What do we want? Everyone: Our Hospital Leader: When do we want it? Everyone: Now!

Leader: What do we need? Everyone: Our Hospital!

Leader: Luxon, Luxon! Everyone: Are you listening? Leader: Build it once Everyone: Build it right

Leader: Save lives Everyone: Not money

Leader: Is this a request? Everyone: No! Leader: Is this a demand? Everyone: Yes!

Today our only organiser is Charlie, who will be holding a megaphone and dressed as the Grim Reaper (for most of the protest) so if you need assistance or support please find Charlie. If you need immediate first aid assistance and it is an emergency, call 111 and ask for an Ambulance, and then inform Charlie when you can.

The only speaker planned for today is Charlie, but depending on time we may be able to invite people on stage to share their views via the megaphone!! If you are interested in this please let Charlie know and they will aim to organise it!

Charlie will be there from 1:45 if you would like to catch up with him beforehand, and the protest officially starts at 2pm. The protest will end at 3pm.

In the instance of an urgent need to end the protest, the following message will be played over the megaphone;

“Please leave the area immediately. The current protest action has been cancelled. Save Our Hospital does not endorse these actions”

Other than that, I’ll see everyone soon!!

Hi all! I am moving to Dunedin in February, and I am curious on what the whitewater rafting/kayaking scene looks like in the general Dunedin area/ where do people go? Also, what are (generally) peak flows for these rivers. I am fairly confident Class IV rafter, but I am just getting into WW kayaking. I know the north part of the South Island has some pretty sick rivers, but just wanted to get a feel for what it was like. Thank you!!

Anyone else missing mail from overseas (specifically Australia)? I had an envelope sent to me over a month ago and haven’t seen it. Last one from same place was here in just over a week.

It's a pixel 6 with a faulty screen/ flickering screen.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hey everyone!!

Save Our Hospital is holding our first (and sadly last) rally to protest the current situation of the Southern Regional Hospital. This is a rally where we’ll make noise, and make a statement once more.

Please come along if you have some time!! It’s this Saturday, 2 November, 2pm to 3pm in the Upper Octagon!!

The Grim Reaper may also make a surprise appearance ;)

I heard that the people behind Side On have reopened on Vogel Street. Anyone been? I can't find any website or even FB page with the info.

In the Halloween festivity and feel like doing some exploring, pm me if or reply if u know any newer spots (eg not Montpellier or the asylum) AND yes I know that is posted all the time but all the spots on other threads r gone or burnt.

Is there anything happening for guy Fawkes? Fireworks etc? I just want to sit somewhere and see fireworks :)

Hey folks, I'm considering relocating to Dunedin and purchasing my first home there. It's affordable for a first time buyer like me compared to auckland. Any recommendations on areas to avoid and areas that's livable? Thanks

Thinking of returning to Dunedin after a year in Australia. During this time my 9 yo became very obsessed with football (soccer, to be unambiguous), plays for a local club, goes to a park to practice almost every night, reads football books watches games etc. basically always keen for anything football-related. I definitely would like to support this passion.

When we lived in Dunedin, he played with other kids in a Green Island club and it was good, however season was short, most of it in winter, and then it was very quiet during summer (most of the other football kids played rugby during this time it seems). Has it always been like that, or there are options to practice and play all year round in more or less structured way? Maybe for older kids?

My husband and I (30s) are about to move to Dunedin from Europe (for work and to be closer to his family) and we're looking for a 2 bedroom house to rent starting February. We're wondering what areas get the most sunlight and which ones to avoid in this regard, as I come from a Mediterranean country and really need that direct sunlight. :) This is pretty much our only requirement in terms of area. Ideally we wouldn't want to be too far from the center but feel free to recommend neighborhoods that are a bit farther out too, we might consider it. Thanks a lot!

Hi all, I have quite a few clothing bits I’d like rid of but am unsure where to take them. I’ve had poor luck on facebook marketplace (lots of interest but no one actually shows up). I’d really like to get a little bit of cash for them as there is some nice stuff there—is there a local second hand shop that takes used clothing for $$? Any other advice? Thanks :))

Seeking some suburb advice. I'm not from Dunedin but am looking to buy a house.

There's a place my partner is keen on in Corstorphine. I've heard mixed reviews about the area. We've been told Corstorphine is "up and coming" but I can't tell if that's just real estate/MA patter.

What are your thoughts Dunedinites??

And any other advice about other potential suburbs we should be looking at is also appreciated!

Help me guys, I’ve been thinking of doing engineering, but I got a scholarship for Otago. I know that they do first year Engineering, which then I’d have to transfer to CC second year. But this depends on your GPA too. LMK ur experience or opinion on this pls pls pls

Left it last minute pls help xx

just wondering if HSFY lectures at uni of otago are all recorded or not? i have health/accessibility issues so this would be highly beneficial, cheers

Has anyone been? I’m looking for an online menu but it only comes up on TikTok which I don’t have..

Trying to do a bit of research about the dark history of the NZ Presbyterian church group and it's support service company, not all the churches are bad but from what I've heard and read, the Otago one has an evil history, but will try to get the most unbiased answers thank you for answering.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could recommend a person or company that could install a showerdome at a reasonable price. Cheers ❤️🙏

We are staying in the Portobello Village Tourist Park on the peninsula (with a campervan) and wondering how to best go about to see wildlife/other amazing things.

I know there are a few tours from Dunedin, but it seems silly to go back to the city for a tour if we have transport. Or would we be missing out if we don't do a guided tour? Perhaps there is something on the peninsula itself?

Hi

My niece is starting at Otago University next year. She will be living in a hall for the first year.

Her parents earn slightly over the threshold and she wont be getting a student allowance so will need to find a weekend job etc.

What advice do you have for a young person moving to Dunedin or starting at Otago University?

Her car needs scrapping and the first task is to replace it so she can drive down with her stuff. I will probably make a call to the hall administration to find out about the parking situation next week.

She currently works at a mcdonalds so her task next week is to find out about transfer options and contact the local franchisees so she can get in line for some weekend shifts, having already been trained on various positions.

What other things do you think we should add to the list to organize?
What should she expect about life in Dunedin?
What are some interesting things to do and see?

I want to try and cover as much stuff as we can so she can make the best use of the next ~10 weeks to prepare.

I'm a disabled person living in a house with stairs, which you can only imagine how that affects my health. My property manager is an asshole and won't let me view the empty rooms on the bottom floor until next year and I'll have to "compete" with students just to get a room on the bottom floor. I work in NEV so I've literally got no choice but to apply for student houses so I can actually get to work, but none and I mean none are good. All I'm asking for is a decent sized room that's warm and a nice tidy and clean kitchen and bathroom, but I've walked into houses I'm viewing and there's trash everywhere and it smells horrible. And for up to $250pw too!? Ridiculous. Im so sick of it, feel like banging my head into a brick wall 🙃.
