High water bill without consuming or leaking water

Peter from Browns Bay

Dear Neighbours,

I was wondering whether you've ever got a high water bill and you were certain that consumption didn't happen. What have you done in that case?

Dear Neighbours,

I was wondering whether you've ever got a high water bill and you were certain that consumption didn't happen. What have you done in that case?

Our 3 people family average waterconsumption is about 250liters/day, for the May-June period we've got a bill for 2500liters/day!!!!! $377! We've checked the metre is read correctly, and there is no current waterleak.

The metre is 40 years old. And we were shocked to see that bill, while knowing we were at home with no changes whatsoever in our consumption. We were not watering anything...

Have you had experience like this before? What did you do?

Thanks,
Peter

The weird and wonderful things about online trading

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

A 1950s aircraft fuselage could be yours after a Waiuku resident listed their "old warbird" on Trade Me.

The Royal New Zealand Bristol Freighter flew as part of the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the Vietnam War. It was then purchased and shipped to Whenuapai-Ardmore in 1978 and then sold on to a Waiuku local. The sellers purchased the land at a later date, and thus the plane.

The listing starts at $18,000 and at time of publishing, has been added to almost 900 users' watchlists.

I got this a while back for model making but didn't know until I picked it up that the top was very warped - I need a straight flat top.
At the moment the top is unscrewed to make it easy to carry, I'll leave it unscrewed but if you want it screwed together before pickup I'll to pop screws back in. In the picture the base is upside down so you can see the screw holes for the table top, apart from the 4 holes, the top and bottom of the base look the same.
Solid wood, looks like pine.


Oh, and the splotchy whitish look on top is dust, I should really have wiped it before taking the photo!
