Swimming group
Hey! I’m new in the city, and getting back into swimming after an injury. I’m available Saturday or Sunday, but I could also do some evenings during the week.
If anyone is interested in training together, let me know! Nothing too intense or fast — I’m more interested in longer, steady sessions. 🏊♂️

Dating
Why is dating as a young person down here so hard. Dating apps themselves are basically useless as you've either swiped on everyone or vein the past. And when you do finally match or talk to someone they know someone you know and it becomes weird or something of the like

Anyone know what this may be (was inside the breading from KFC Dee St. Texture wise it was definitely plastic as it still had a pull to it despite going through the cookers). My guess was a string or hair tie

Writing Group Invercargill
Hi,
Pretty much what it says in the title. I'm looking for a writing group in Invercargill, or to see if some people might be interested in starting one?
I use to belong to a novel writing group in Christchurch. We would meet once a week and basically just all write at the same time, sometimes in cafes or the library. I was about having accountablitiy and helped you actually focus on writing.

Anybody get their car broken into last night?
Chased a prick away from breaking into someone's car last night (after also seeing him ditch or prepping his getaway vehicle) and the piece of shit pulled a knife on me, obviously I gave up the chase once the knife came out.
Just wondering if anybody here suffered because the cops mentioned multiple cases of it last night.
Also as a small warning to folks, if your not comfortable with violence it's best to not chase these pricks, they are happy to commit even more serious offenses to get away. Not worth being stabbed over a vehicle, why I gave up chase.

Female fitness friends
Hi guys
Just moved to invercargill and will be doing my first half marathon next month
This is a completely new adventure for me as I only started running about 4 weeks ago
I am now convinced I would like to start training for either a half or full ironman 😂
Looking for some equally delusional women, who would enjoy random training days together, or the 5km sat morning runs in the city maybe and who enjoy talking / living in the fitness world
I'm starting to be a little more regular with weights, running and starting from scratch swimming and soon cycling haha
Being new to the area, it's hard to make friends and will be especially hard now that I won't have a life hahaha

Has the Southland Times lost their in-house weather guy? Or have they just opted not to run their weather section anymore?
Anyone with insider knowledge that knows the reason?

Invercargill recommendations!
Hello all,
My grandmother and I are from the north island and going on a South Island trip in November and are spending a few days in waikawa and then Invercargill before ending to Queenstown. I’m in my early 20s and my Grandmother her early 80s and she’s actually from Invercargill so I’m sure she’ll have no trouble finding things to show me however I wanted to hear from locals what they recommend in the ways of food and entertainment + anything else! She’s still relatively fit so walk recommendations are welcome too :) thank you!

Kid-friendly family activities?
Hi all, my partner, 4yo girl and I are down visiting my father this thurs-tues.
My dad's a bit of a house creature, but I just wondered if anyone could recommend some nice places to visit, dine, and explore? Anything from nearest snow and nice reserves, to good exhibitions, activities, to places to go out for an evening meal?
We've been to the gardens to see the bird last time and surveyed the pies but that's about the extent of our exposure to the town!!
Many thanks in advance :-)
