Why is it that cigarette smokers don't consider that their butts are litter? Beaches, parks and roadways are littered with their non-biodegradable cast-offs.

About three months ago, my wife mislaid her newish iPad Mini. We searched high and low and even used the Apple app designed to locate missing devices, but had no luck. It was eventually replaced and more or less forgotten until last Sunday night, when we received a call from a man who asked my wife if she had recently lost an iPad. It turned out she had put it down and forgotten it on a visit to Spotlight in Sylvia Park. It was handed in by a customer to the manager, Joanne, who temporarily lost track of it among her paperwork, then found it, had it recharged by her husband, found the owner's name and made the call. So a huge thanks to Joanne and her staff. This is the sort of unlikely story that makes New Zealand the best country in the world in which to live.
