Hi everyone! My name is Brooke and I own and operate a business called Storm & Friends! I have worked with animals for roughly 8 years and also have my certificate in Animal care.
I offer group dog walks to most areas in Christchurch! As well as dog boarding in my home. And daily visits to any pets staying home whilst you are away! As well as being a dog lover, I adore my feline friends too!

I have lots of space still available for cat feeding over the Christmas break, as well as a couple of spaces left for dog boarding over this time too!

And also if you are interested in regular group walks for your dogs - feel free to get in touch!

I look forward to hopefully meeting some of you soon! 😊

Any screen printers out there willing to offer advice??

My son has recently suffered an injury which means he’s going to have less mobility for a while and needs something to keep his mind active and spirits up.
He’s been interested in screen printing and I’m looking to get him a simple and inexpensive set up to have a go. I just don’t know where to start.
I’ve done some googling but am not finding it very useful.
Any advice much appreciated.

Cheers

I have also been relieved of depression
I believe I was born with this disease. As a child I ate more than what I was comfortable with on many occasions; eating the biggest apple in the fruit bowl, when I knew it wasn’t a good idea because I wouldn’t be hungry for dinner, but not being able to not do so, sneaking food, being overcome with the obsession to eat a can of cream corn in the middle of a Sunday afternoon, thinking I’m not sure that I want to do this but I can’t stop myself anyway.

During my adolescence I used laxatives because I was often constipated. I was only a little overweight once or twice in my life and there were times when I was “nice and thin”. One summer I thought I “had it made” because my stomach was flat enough to wear a bikini. I thought my eating was neurotic but I thought that other neurotic women like me ate like that and I would just grow out of it.

Foodstuffs Own Brands Ltd is recalling all batches and all dates of its six Pams brand berry products.
New Zealand has seen a surge of cases of Hepatitis A this year and 12 of those infected (including seven hospitalised) have been linked with the consumption of frozen berries.
The recall of Pams products is a precaution due to this possible link of Hepatitis A associated with berries sourced from Serbia.

Here's what you need to know:
- All batches and all dates of Pams Mixed Berries, Two Berry Mix, Smoothie Berry Mix, and Raspberries have been recalled and removed from supermarkets.
- The Pams products are sold at New World, PAK’nSAVE and Four Square stores nationwide.
- Hepatitis A is a contagious virus which spreads easily. Learn more here.
- Due to the possibility that other brands of berries may be infected, New Zealand Food Safety continues to advise those eating frozen berries to wash hands before and after preparing the berries, briefly boil them before eating and ensure cooking temperatures exceed 85 degree Celsius for 1 minute.

If you have consumed any of these products and have any concerns about your health, seek medical advice.
