I received a phone call at lunch time today from the Redwood Vet Clinic to say Bosco had been brought in. Thankfully a lovely lady called Claire had been looking after him for the past week and took him into her local vet, yes in Redwood, over 10km from our house! Bosco is microchipped so once they scanned him they were able to ring me and give me the good news. We think Bosco hitched a ride from Wigram to Redwood (a 15-20 minute car ride away!) He has been known to get into just about anything so this doesn't surprise us! Marty was able to go and pick him up this afternoon - unfortunately I'm in Kaikoura for the week working! While Bosco was missing we had plenty of ups and downs. The hardest bit was not having any idea if he was okay, but what really helped was the support from not only our friends and neighbours, but from complete strangers. So from the bottom of our hearts we thank you! Thank you for those comments "oh he will be okay you will get him back". Thank you to our neighbours and their children who have been out searching. Thank you to the random people out walking in our neighbourhood who took a flyer I handed them. Thank you to complete strangers who shared Facebook posts or sent us a nice message. And thank you to Claire who took care of Bosco! I have yet to get in touch with her but are hoping to meet up with her at some point to thank her in person.
See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:
1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.
2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges … View moreSee our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:
1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.
2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.
3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.
4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.
5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.

1) Cheer up small places with plants
As we tend to focus on large pieces of furniture like sofas and tables, corners of our homes are often left a little neglected. The solution? Add an array of fresh and different textured plants, big and small. The splash of green looks amazing in any room.
2) Use wallpaper in unexpected places
So long are the days were wallpaper is used on every wall. Instead, be clever and playful with it. Whether wallpaper in a corner of a room, underneath the staircase or inside cupboards – it instantly adds statement to your home.
3) Leave cabinets and shelving space open
Embrace clutter. Open shelving is a fantastic way to display our homeware and means we can actually be more diligent about what we keep.
