Shower
If you are building a new home or renovating an old bathroom and
you have an electric hot water heater you will have to install a
shower head that pumps no more than 6 litres of water per minute.
The plumbing industry is not impressed and judging by the amount of
feedback we have received, neither are you. When we left things
last week Jeanette Fitzsimmons promised us she could show us a
shower head that meets the new regulations and still gives a decent
shower. So it's time for the compare and contrast. Sofia Wenborn
found some people in need of a good shower.
Caitlin
Seven year old, Caitlin Thorne should be back at school in Sydney,
instead her desperate dad is appealing for your help to find her in
New Zealand. Caitlin was snatched by her drug addicted mother while
on holiday with her grandparents in Auckland last week and there
have been no sightings of her since. According to father Terry,
Caitlin's mum has become involved in P and the criminal underworld.
He says when undercover policeman Don Wilkinson was killed last
month while installing surveillance gear in a car she was inside
the house the car was parked at. The New Zealand courts have
granted him an interim parenting order and a warrant has been
issued to enforce it. The problem is no one seems to know where
Caitlin and her mum are.
Caveman
At some stage we've all dreamed of getting away from it all and
becoming more at one with nature, but few of us would take it to
the extreme one Wellington man has. Pensioner Ross Collins has
built his own little hideaway in a cave near the entrance to
Wellington Harbour. The local council has turned a blind eye to the
structure, and as Corinne Ambler reports Mr Collins probably has
the best view in Wellington.

New Zealanders voted Mahe Drysdale our Olympic athlete most
deserving of a new vehicle and our most popular paralympian, as
voted by you, was given the keys to another four wheel drive. Jendy
Harper was at the high school handover.
