As there is an experienced team in place, a new owner is easily able to follow suit and put their focus into the sales side of the business.
Products are sourced from suppliers directly from Europe.
For the 2018 financial year, the business had total sales of around $3.2m with a return to the owner of over $270,000.
$60 ono
This would suit ages up to 9 or 10 ( depending on size of child)

The annual refugee quota will lift from 1000 to 1500 by July 2020, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced this week. Before 2016 the refugee quota sat static at 750 for 30 years, well behind many other western nations. The National Government then raised it to 1000. Is it enough?

I leave on October the 1st..10 days time!!
I am also raising money for STAND, a nationwide service trying to help as many struggling children as possible. As you may know there are too many kiwis (of all ages) struggling and not enough services, funding, resources, staff and time to meet the high demand so the money I raise will go directly towards psychologists seeing children faster to shorten their recovery time. I would love it if you could donate even a few dollars to this worth while cause. Here is a link to my give a little page where you can read more about what I am doing.

From next month, the regulations can mean fines for dog owners who don't have their pooches restrained on moving vehicles. Dogs on the back of a truck, trailer or ute, travelling on a public road, had to be tied up with a leash or rope, if not in a cage or crate.
Those caught breaking that law could be fined up to $900 under new Animal Welfare Regulations from next month. Read more from Stuff here

Something different from the obligatory cherry blossom photos that invade social media at this time of year - a long exposure photo of Mona Vale weir.... was a beautiful evening for a walk, and parts of our city have very pretty colours at dusk, including the cherry blossoms... :)
Will need a clean.( Photo taken in Sun so reflection of table on pot

1) The radical changes to Papanui Village are proposed by Staff to make bus commuting faster and speedier northward; a saving of between 40 sec - 2 minutes. But these benefits do not justify the RADICAL changes to our Village and the severe impacts on locals. I feel it is an imbalance between competing ideologies about "community."
2) Our Ward is unique with a large demographc of retirement homes and mobile elderly. They will no longer be able to cross a much busier Main North Rd safely (3-5 lanes of North-South traffic depending on where you are).
3) We lose ALL northside on-street Main North Rd carparking. On the southside we retain only 4 P30s and only useable between bus-lane hours.
4) Our small business owners object. Like Riccarton, it will affect retailers' viability and jobs.
5) Always designated a "village" we are effectively cut in two; there were no negatives recorded in consultation for Mana Whenua (Nga Tahu), but I would argue as 'mana whenua Papanui' there are severe cultural impacts on our cultural rights of settlement here since 1850, which are not factored above the higher "needs" of City bus commuters heading north (faster bus travel times).
6) Papanui Village is severed and becomes a rapid transit commuter corridor v pedestrians.
7) There are 5 banks and a NZPost/kiwibank and lots of small shops, Aged Care, bars, takeaways, that draw quick in/out visits. Removing on-street car parks severely impacts this P5 local need.
8) Your Community Board proposed a P5 carpark on Harewood Rd corner, but due to frequency of use Staff felt a P60 designatuon was better for safety (less in/out car use) or none at all. However, if it's unsafe to have a P5 or P60 carpark there, due to the added buses and bikes, why aren't those safety concerns carried over to the rest of Papanui Village as a whole, which is a pedsestain community shopping area?
9) The Plan is saying - "it's unsafe to be road side anywhere in Papanui due to added cycles and buses speeding down a dedicated bus/bike land."
10) Merivale Village and Mall on the same corridor with the same buses and cycles has not had its on-street carparking removed, so there is an issue of village equity here.
One other colleague and I voted against the Plan as a whole but it was carried 4/2. See post below (with maps).

Canterbury road policing manager Inspector Ash Tabb said that while Fendalton Rd was not usually a hot-spot for boy racers, it was a closely-watched issue in the city.
“Canterbury police have a dedicated team which liaises with the car enthusiasts group, and uses education and enforcement intervention to change behaviour,” he said.
