T & G flooring, weatherboard and iron are the main ones we're looking for at the moment but willing to look at anything construction related.
Would you like to see the Sevens tournament in Christchurch? The World series visits Paris, London, Hong Kong and currently Wellington. But organisers say the windy capital is no longer the place to be and are looking elsewhere. Would you like to see it in our city?

Half the tree came down a couple of days ago so my kids and I have gone and picked loads of bags, with many more still to pick. I have many here that I'd like to sell for $2.50 kg and this lovely lady will give the money to her church to be used in the community. Let me know if you're interested and I can pass on my address for pickup
Would you like to pay your mortgage off quicker?

Are you aware that over the lifetime of a standard mortgage you will very likely pay as much or more interest than the amount you actually borrow? Or that by using standard bank tools, it is possible to halve the cost of the interest charged on your mortgage even for those on a modest income?
Money not spent on mortgage interest increases your cash flow and enables you to pay off your debt much sooner than you could have dreamt.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!

Remember 86% of Kiwis want to get to know their neighbours better, but just don't see them around much (71%). Take the first step!
