 A  PLUMBER appeared on a charge of aggravated robbery of the Sideline Bar in Stanmore Rd Christchurch last month as well as charges of driving recklessly in Main North Rd. He failed to stop for a police car using its flashing lights and siren and receiving stolen property. Defense counsel Tim Fournier sought his release on bail under strict conditions.

hi guys/craftsman, yes I become incandescent with rage when a bunch of lying, cheating, overpaid expense fiddling, self righteous bullies, travel the country to have a good old jolly up at our expense, to justify this scam and nonsense, they then see fit to patronize us in a manner you would with a small child by telling us it`s all in the name of health and safety,cheers
