Sparkle returns to Lambton Square

The sparkle returns to Lambton Square just in time for Christmas with the re-opening of the newly refurbished Pascoes store.

Pascoes has been in Lambton Square for 31 years and re-opens on 29 November after undergoing renovations for the past seven months.

The seven-strong Pascoes team is looking forward to getting its new-look store back says Lambton Square store manager Tom Anderson.

“The historic store has been completely updated with modern fittings and fixtures wrapped up in the latest design,” says Mr Anderson who has been with the company for the past eight years after joining as a sales assistant.

“Shoppers get a great view of the merchandise from inside and out. The new layout includes more window space and a completely new interior design for more comfortable shopping.”

The only thing that hasn’t changed Mr Anderson says is the full range of quality diamond, gemstone, gold and silver jewellery available to customers. “Shoppers will also find a wide range of top watch brands such as Casio, Tissot, Seiko, Lorus, Pulsar, Citizen, Guess, Timex, Olympic and Elite.”

Pascoes the Jewellers Lambton Square is located at Shop 1 Lambton Square, 180 Lambton Quay, Wellington. Family-owned Pascoes the Jewellers is 106 years old and continues to be a leading name in jewellery and watches.

Public Address Link:
A (Sweary) Analysis Of Urgency Abuse And
The Consititution

Keith Ng: You’re looking at the Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS) for the Public Health and Disability Amendment Bill. Basically, the courts said that the Government had to pay family members who looked after people with disabilities (because not doing so was discriminatory), so the Government passed this law to say: “Yeah nah.”

The RIS isn’t just redacted for the public – it was redacted for MPs. *Parliament* voted on this, with all the relevant facts blacked out.

Sure, it’s understandable, right? If you’re passing a law that’s really dodgy, you don’t want advice from civil servants saying “uh, this is pretty illegal” to be public. But actually, that’s not really a problem here, because in the same piece of legislation, THEY SAID THEY CAN’T BE TAKEN TO COURT. More>>

We are apparently on track for a margin-of-error $75 million surplus, now in sight for 2014/15.

With this strictly nominal surplus in sight, the 1984-ish justification for eternal austerity will have a news talisman: namely, getting Crown debt down to 20% of GDP by 2020. More>>
