Vodafone NZ's e-mail forwarding ends today

In November 2017, Vodafone NZ closed its servers for customer e-mails, but began forwarding ones that people sent to them to whatever new addresses customers advised them of.

Today that forwarding service ends, so any customer still with our paradise.net.nz address in their address book should delete it and replace it with the one contained on our main website homepage

At that time they were almost all women.  A set of pictures showing the uniforms of different airlines is here

bridge with a central lift section over the Taruheru River, Gisborne, NZ, 110 years ago

The counterweights as pulleys made the process of lifting it easier.   There was obviously river traffic at that time requiring such a bridge; there isn't now.

traffic and tram on the Götaälvbron, Göteborg, Sweden, circa 1960

Known in English as Gothenburg, and this is the bridge over the Gota River. This was obviously before the switch to right hand side driving in 1967.  The skyline has been added to in the intervening years.

VR diesel and steam classes in Ballarat, Australia, 1960s

S306 on the left obviously has a passenger train on the couplings; J518 could be on the front of a goods train.  The loco behind the J looks like an R class.  See earlier posts.
