A bag can spill open, can't it?

Ps the grammar posts have been sent off somewhere else.




Most of the posters in this thread are just like chimpanzees on MDMA, full of feelings of bonhomie, joy, and optimism. Fred99 8/4/21

I read it as a place name, was kind of unsurprised by news about a rape in Masterton and the presence of a cult in the area. So you can't know everything about a story from reading the headline, apparently.

Brilliant. And about as reliable as much of guff that comes out of that Ministry - even though it's the Herald's mistake.

"Tenant destroyed Whangaparāoa house, costing landlord $47k in repairs"

 

Tip: If your house is destroyed - it only costs $47k to fix it.

That article also begins by saying the landlord had to pay for it, but ends with the tenant having to pay for it.

The landlord had to pay. The courts award payment as compensation for specific things.
