Black Leather Couch

Lisa from Albany Heights

This couch was originally $5k - it has been good to us but we are now re-decorating.

It is tired - leather still in reasonably good condition but the seams are coming apart and the foam in one spot has shifted. You can see from the pics.

Would look as good as new if some TLC was given to it.… View more

It is still very modern and has been a good friend to us. But now a new home is where this couches journey is destined for….

Cushions and blanket not included.

Two door dishwasher they sell for over $2k new

Could be good for spare parts if it didn’t work properly.

Poll: Should our voting age be lowered to 16?

Ashleigh Ogden from Neighbourly.co.nz

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

The current age of voting is 18 in New Zealand and lobby group Make It 16 have been running a youth-led campaign advocating for the vote to be extended to our 16 and 17-year-olds.

“This is history,” said Make It 16 co-director Caeden Tipler. “Today New Zealand’s highest court has confirmed that stopping young people from voting is a breach of our human rights...The government and Parliament cannot ignore such a clear legal and moral message. They must let us vote.”

Our national women’s rugby team took out the Rugby World Cup on Saturday in a tense finale at Eden Park. The Black Ferns won the match by just three points taking home their sixth world title.

With public celebrations taking place following the All Blacks (men's) Rugby World Cup wins (2011 & 2015) as well as parades for the America's cup team, do you think similar celebration plans are needed for our winning Black Ferns women?
