Free - clothes hanger for Garage Sale plus festive banners
Hi: I have cleared out my garage and would like to give to someone who has garage sales, a temporary, make-shift clothes hanger. My father fashioned two wooden posts and a metal rod that slips between them. It can lie flat in your garage so takes up very little room.
I also have two festive banners: one purple and one bright yellow on bamboo rods. They curve at the end and come down to dream catchers (one has lost its threads but is still OK). These are great to attract attention to your event. They just need propping up on something.
There may also be other things like boards that hook jewellery onto them, depending on what you want to take. First-come, first-served basis. Tel. 021 907 986 Carole
Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
