This sofa is on the grass verge outside 27 Empire Rd, Epsom and the first person there can take it away. It might be covered by a yellow tarpaulin (actually a canvas rubbish skip). Please don't take that. (anyway, that would be theft, and the street is riddled with security cameras).

You may have seen the post doing the rounds on social media at the moment asking whether English is spoken here and suggesting NZ is a state of Australia (see below). Have you ever been asked anything surprising about NZ? Feel free to message me or comment below. Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in the article. Thanks very much for your help and happy travels.
