Grooves up or down? Decking debate settled

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

The great kiwi deck, every home should have one. But there's a decking debate raging in DIY and Reno circles: Should the grooves go up or down?
We think we've settled the argument here.

Christchurch residents restricted to watering gardens on alternate days

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The Christchurch City Council has imposed water restrictions to ensure there is enough water for firefighting, after residents used an average of 400 litres each on Wednesday.

The Christchurch City Council has imposed water restrictions to ensure there is enough water for firefighting, after residents used an average of 400 litres each on Wednesday.

Under level one restrictions, residents at odd-numbered addresses can use their hoses, sprinklers, and garden irrigation systems before 3pm or after 9pm on odd dates, with residents at even-numbered addresses doing so on even dates.

“Watering gardens and lawns using irrigation systems, hoses and sprinklers is the real challenge - washing the car using a bucket, using a watering can in the garden, or filling a small paddling pool, on any day, is fine under level one restrictions," head of three waters Helen Beaumont says.

Level two water restrictions were introduced last month in Akaroa, Duvauchelle and Takamatua on Banks Peninsula, as the streams that supply drinking water to those towns had been especially low.

Hi all,
Further to the below post, I want to thank everyone who reached out with offers and support etc, happy to now say my daughter and I have secured a place along with our old fur baby, so excited for the move and our new journey!

Just really throwing this out there on here as well. After 10yrs renting current property under an agency I need to move on by the end of Jan/start of feb due to house being sold!

We are looking for a minimum 2x bedroom, fully fenced secured yard to allow my old fat lazy dog and my beautiful child to play!

I have a FABULOUS reference from the agency with a high recommendation including the dog, who is sad to loose us as valued tenants.

Please if anyone hears or knows of any rentals becoming available over the next month (pet friendly) can you kindly let me know.
Much appreciated.

I hope everyone had a lovely Xmas and New Year.

Thank you in advance.
Katie.

Two pet-killing canines are still on the loose despite being spotted on camera nearly two months ago.

Kathryn Rutherford reported a fatal dog attack on her two pet cats to Christchurch City Council in November, killing both, but says she is livid the dogs have not been found almost two months later.

The situation is personal for Rutherford, as her own pet dog Soula was put down for biting a child’s face last year, despite her taking legal action to prevent it being destroyed.

Animal control officers responded to two separate dog attacks on cats in Shirley in November and a third on Christmas Day in nearby Burwood, killing a pet sheep.

The officers pursued the dogs on Christmas Day, but were unable to catch up and eventually lost sight of them, council head of regulatory compliance Tracey Weston said.

A North Canterbury commuter says common sense is behind his push to reinstate a 70kmh speed limit on one of the main routes into Christchurch.

Grant Harris is one of the regular users of Marshland Rd who has contacted Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey after the Christchurch City Council reduced the limit to 60kmh.

Doocey said he had been approached by many residents who were unhappy after the speed limit between Chaneys Corner and Prestons Rd was reduced in November.
