Sadly our microwave is about to takes its last breath after so many years.
It has been repaired once and now we know it's dying.
So we are on the hunt as to where to buy a new one and really need your help please.
We have Googled the obvious places but we aren't too happy with the exorbitant prices nor the cheap (fall apart) brands like the Warehouse are offering - Living & Co.
Kmart have the brand ANKO, a very unfamiliar Korean brand
The Noel Lemming's clearance shop only have one on offer and it's a supplier seconds.
We currently have a Panasonic one and are looking for something similar - about 30L.
Any ideas?

Along with landline phones and bar soap, top sheets are allegedly an "endangered species".

It's a topic of discussion that crops up every year or so and in some places, using a top sheet when you make your bed is almost unheard of. What's your preference?

Around the world, communities, schools, businesses, groups and people from all walks of life are taking big and small steps in solidarity with refugees. This World Refugee Day, we challenge everyone in New Zealand to join together and take a step to make a difference.

You can take part in the #StepWithRefugees campaign, where participants will collectively walk, run and cycle 1 billion miles - the distance refugees cover each year to reach safety, by adding your steps here: stepwithrefugees.org...

Another option is to volunteer with the New Zealand Red Cross as a Refugee Support Volunteer. Volunteers help families start again, while teaching them about New Zealand culture and connecting them with people from the community.

For anyone based in the Wairarapa, Masterton Neighbourhood Support has a programme called 'WeConnect' that matches new residents from diverse backgrounds including refugees to a local buddy. If you're interested in volunteering or supporting the programme in other ways you can email Masterton Neighbourhood Support Area Coordinator, Cathy Cameron, at: cathy@connectingcommunities.org.nz
