Looking for free microwave for an old neighbour
I have an old neighbour in her mid 70s (and with health problems, eg she can only use one arm) on a very small pension. After Xmas I was shocked to hear that she was basically living on Chinese Noodles all the time - especially as I had just eaten a large portion of leftover ham from another neighbour (and felt quite guilty about that). Since then I'm looking after her a bit and started to bring round dinner and leftovers occasionally (I'm not exactly rich myself, but if the small guys don't help each other out …). The problem is that heating up leftovers is difficult for her with just one usable arm - so I'm looking for a free microwave for her. If anyone has one then I would appreciate if she could have it. Thanks. Markus

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
