HOUSEHOLD CLEARANCE: 3x Woman's Jeans size 6 & 8

Markus from Green Bay

HOUSEHOLD CLEARANCE CONTINUES …

I have no clue about women's clothes, except that they had cost an arm and a leg ($119 to $169 in the shops), and after just a few months were too small AGAIN … so my apologies if I get something wrong.

HOUSEHOLD CLEARANCE CONTINUES …

I have no clue about women's clothes, except that they had cost an arm and a leg ($119 to $169 in the shops), and after just a few months were too small AGAIN … so my apologies if I get something wrong.

1x Stretch Denim Jeans in blue, size 6, made by Dotti

1x Velvet Jeans (?) in dark blue, size 8, made by CountryRoad

1x "Divided" Jeans in blue, size EU 34 (=NZ 6) and US 4 (= NZ 8), made by H&M (well, at least I know H&M)

I didn't wash them as I assume the buyer washes them anyway, so it would be a waste of energy and water - come on guys & gals, it needs the team of 8 Billion to save the planet, not a few hundred self-centered politicians!

Each $35 or all 3 for $75

Contactless pickup in Green Bay is much preferred though posting is possible. If you are outside Auckland then maybe a friend of yours in Auckland can do the pickup.

As I work from home anyway I'm home pretty much all the time, so just let me know a time you would like to come round.

I have a whole household and shed to clear - so please have a look at my other listings too!

Price: $25

The Listening Sand with poet and workshop facilitator Anne Kennedy.
Free: Saturday 30 April, 2pm - 5pm. North Piha Glade and Beach.
Register at info@goingwestfest.co.nz
The Listening Sand, is a chance for you to use the craft of poetry to shape and share your deep thoughts - to ‘tell the sand’ a memory, a secret, a hope. In the workshop, we’ll explore the ways to make and shape a poem. When we’ve written our poems, we’ll carve them into the wet, receptive sand while sand-tagger, David Hilliam, illuminates and connects our writing. Of course, when the tide comes in, your poem will be washed away, but it will remain in your head, your voice, your notebook, the film.
Poetry can help us express ideas that otherwise remain unsaid. The sand will be our creative confidante. In this workshop you will be guided by the expertise and empathy of Anne Kennedy to write from the heart; to tell the sand your worries, memories, and hopes. Making an impression in the sand seems like a simple thing to do; it’s primal. But it’s also complex. We mark the earth by our very existence; and, because there are a lot of us, that’s a lot of marks.
We walk in nature and it makes us feel good. These last few years have been difficult, and the world is in crisis environmentally and politically. Poetry is a place where you can say what you think and feel. A poem is a way to work out complexity. 

The planet, in a way, ‘listens’ to our behaviour.

Anne Kennedy is an experienced writing workshop facilitator who will guide you to find your tone, to select words, and to contemplate how a poem can crystalize elements of time, difficulties and musings.

Workshop schedule

2.00pm: Welcome and introductions, and outlining the afternoon.
2.15pm: Talking through the idea, including poem samples.
2.35pm: Writing time
3.10pm: Sharing our poems, and making any revisions.
3.40pm: To the beach!

Kia ora neighbours, three popular tracks in the Waitākere Ranges will be reopening this weekend after a nearly four-year closure due to kauri dieback disease.

On Friday, the Gibbons, Muir and Pararaha Valley tracks will be officially reopened to the public after being closed in May 2018.

The tracks, along with a raft of others, were closed in 2018 until mitigation work could be carried out to bring them all up to a safe standard for the kauri trees.

This week our Advanced cookery students designed a three-course menu that includes a fish dish, involving the filleting of a fish, freshly made pasta - ribbon or ravioli, plus dessert - all with a Mediterranean theme.
This is one of our most popular projects as the students must design a three-course menu, cost it in a spreadsheet to meet a specific budget, create a menu card and timeplan to help them execute the tasks. They must serve the menu to a guest who arrives at 12.30. Everything is done on the day. The students also get to sit with their guest to savour and enjoy their creations.

Along with our cookery students, the Food & Beverage, Level 4 students showcased excellent wine and food service to the guests.

Some of the dishes prepared were -
- Pan seared fish with salsa and mesclun salad
- Fettuccine Al Burro with handmade pasta
- Semolina cake soaked in orange blossom syrup, rosewater sorbet, pistachio crumb & candied orange peel
