A study of 500 15-year-olds across two generations found Kiwi kids today are less fit and weigh between 8kg and 13kg more than their parents did.
What do you think is the cause of this - screen time, less exercise, poor diet, or something else?
Wanted, a load of wood chips. If in the Bordesley street area am more than happy to take a load.

Last year saw a national shortage of Swan plants, the main diet of Monarch caterpillars, causing a large number of the population to be wiped out.
Yates is getting behind the drive to avert a similar crisis this year by giving away various free butterfly friendly seeds including Yates new Butterfly Field Mix seeds between 1st and 14th October. Just register here during this time to receive your packet of seeds.
A national planting day will be held on 20th October. Plant a Swan plant or other butterfly friendly plants in your garden, in your neighbour’s garden, at school, in your local community garden – and let’s help Monarch butterflies flourish.
National Gardening Week aims to foster a love of gardening with a focus on growing not only plants but friendships, good health, strong communities and closer connections with nature.
Perfect for visiting grandparents or parents !
Brand new , fully furnished .
Comfortable and relaxing.

I bought this item many years ago, and have had many happy hours using it, but it can only be used on a computer which has a processor number 95/98/2000/NT. It is called PRINT ARTIST, and this version is number 8. I am now using version 23, so you will see how this product has grown over the years. It's brilliant to use, and I have made lots of wonderful items with this product. My reason for putting it on Neighbourly is that, if anyone did have an old computer on which it could be used, I am more than happy to pass this product to that person, as it seems such a shame to throw away something so worthwhile. I have added a picture of the top of the box.
