Be wary when in Tauranga? There are reports of exploding toilets ? Not sure if it relates to the local food or maybe there is a plot by Jaffas to persuade tourists to visit Auckland

Police has blamed a smoker in the toilet for an explosion in a central city shopping block that blew out the door and sent pieces of wood and glass flying 10 metres.
Tauranga's city centre was cordoned off after the blast yesterday afternoon.
Police initially thought a homemade bomb attack was behind the blast but later revealed they believed it was an accident caused by a staff member smoking in the toilets at the back of the shops, which house a number of businesses.
Western Bay of Plenty Acting Area Commander Inspector Karl Wright-St Clair said the small toilet building was also used to store cleaning products. It appeared either ash or the cigarette butt from the smoker had somehow started a slow-burning fire that ignited the cleaners.
