The painting is of several red and white flowers floating on a dark blue background. It is airbrushed onto a large metal canvas.
It is extremely valuable to me, as it took weeks of work on my part, and was painted for my mother. Market value is upwards of $1000. It would be impossible for me to duplicate it.
Any information regarding it's whereabouts - or its safe return - would be immensely appreciated!
Thank you.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

What a lovely neighbourhood!
Chris Wooddin was the first to respond and arrived less than an hour later.
He stayed longer than I asked for, helped me remove the debris to a suitable drying location, and even helped me put a sign on the fence that I had volunteered to put up for the not-for-profit Halswell Drama Group's upcoming show.
Chris went above and beyond and I can highly recommend his services for any handy work you require.
Thanks Chris, Love Kim xxx
Hi All,
Do any of my lovely neighbours have a hedge trimmer, maybe a small chainsaw, and some free time (today, she says hopefully!) to help with my hedge.
I haven’t measured, but it’s probably less that 5 metres across - I have a ladder and extension cords here if that helps. I've done most of the cut back manually on the footpath side, so its mainly the top and this side.
It should take an hour or less, and I'll take care of the clean up.
And would $50 or a dozen RTD’s be appropriate?
Or I am happy to swap for a healing (I am a certified Master Healer).
I’d like to keep it in check for the look, and to prevent loss of light and access on the footpath.
Love Kim xxx
Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.
The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?

This shelf is free to anyone who wishes it. It is wonky as the screws need redoing otherwise in okay condition. I also have a green and black one with a back if wanted but the top is broken.

I'm clearing out my excess plants before the planting rush in spring. It's first in first served and items won't be held so be quick to get the best choices. New plants and bulbs added everyday and many more than shown. Please note that the plants will be smaller versions of the bigger ones shown. Many of the pots have multiple plants/bulbs yet still count as one plant so you get even more of a bargain.
For every three that you buy I'll give you a choice of two other free plants from a selection on the day you pick up. You therefore get 5 plants for $1 total.
Price: $1
