The Story of Surfdale

The Team from Auckland Museum

Did you know that Surfdale in Waiheke Island received its name via a competition? The winner was awarded a section of land near the beach...

At 8 pence a day on top of a small deposit, a Surfdale section was also promoted as a sound investment – so close to downtown Auckland that “values must go up and up and up”.

Well, they weren't wrong there.

Today, Waiheke Island brings to mind sunny vineyards and beachy weekend getaways. The image of Waiheke as an “island paradise” has its origins in 1920s marketing, but the island has long been desirable even as its character has changed over the past centuries.

As we go into the long weekend and begin to venture further afield again, why not have a read of how Waiheke came to be the place it is today, in this blog about its recent history by our Project Curator, Jane Groufsky.

Living the dream

Colleen Hawkes Reporter from Homed

It's inspirational to meet a family that's taken the plunge to leave the rat race and establish themselves in the country. This couple not only managed to keep their jobs, but also build a stunning house on the Coromandel Peninsula that has caught the eye of NZIA judges.

Lot of my clients suffer from irregular bowel movements or find it hard to empty their bowel.
The simplest trick to help this is a large glass of warm water to be drunken between 5 am and 7 am. That time is the organ time for large intestines when it works the most effective. Be regular by being consistent. Every morning drink your Glas of warm water first thing and go to the toilet. Relax ... think about what you can let go off. 😆 not just in the bathroom but in life. A lovely affirmation to support your endeavours is: I let go of the old stuff effortlessly and the new enriches me. ( feel free to adjust the wording)
This might not work straight away first day but you are teaching your body something new. Do this for at least a full 10 days. I am certain it will help you with regular bowl movements.
With love

Brandon from Mission Bay

Any one know what the best mode and temp is for drying clothes with Air Conditioner indoors?

I heard about dry mode but it’s not blowing very strong so would cool mode or heat mode work better any ideas?
