The most popular options are the quick-and-easy triple fold, or folding the outer edges towards the centre before folding in thirds, to create a plusher, more spa-like look. But what do you do? And who knew folding towels could be so controversial?

This week was extremely busy especially with Patrick away in Westport working for the end of the week. He arrived home this afternoon and promptly received a phone call from a small business with no lights, and needing to open for evening service.
Our policy is no household or business should ever go without power, lighting or hot water 24/7 so after dropping his bags, and giving everyone including the dogs a quick kiss he was out the door for a few more hours.
Luckily one small takeaway shop was able to open for business!
Remember if its urgent we can help 24/7.
