It would suit a computer buff who would know what they are all for.
I know there is quite a length of computer cable in there because it is labelled.

Offers. You are welcome to come and have a look and see if there is stuff there you could use. Tip it out and you will know what it all is. It was my son's domain. He is now living in London using his computer skills to good advantage. He wanted to work with computers since he was 5 years of age when he first saw one.

Offers, as I have no idea what it all is.

I am Situated in Kuripuni
Thanks for looking.

It seems that every year, Featherston Booktown goes from strength to strength, and is surely making its mark along with its other international Booktown events in Europe, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan and Australia.

Booktown celebrates books, storytelling and ideas, and the artefact and craft of the book.

The word is getting out about this year’s rich line-up of events in our South Wairarapa town and already some events are sold out.

There’s so much to choose from – there's sure to be something to tempt you. How about a selection of horror stories told late at night, or learn how to write your family’s history, or even a session devoted to pets, our adored fur babies.

Kids can do some print and paper making, or turn a poem into prompt journal (8 years and older) with Emma Hinton. Carol Duffy has a free book reading where kids can make native bird stick puppets that are part of the story.

Tell your friends and make a date to head to a Booktown event and be educated, inspired and entertained.

Featherston Booktown Karukatea Festival – 51 events, 89 presenters and literary top-liners, along with 25 booksellers.

Friday 12 to Sunday 14 May 2023.

Find out about the packed programme here. Book your tickets online or at Martinborough or Masterton i-SITEs.

Lest we forget...

The Team from NZ Compare

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."

Don't go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold. You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Check your eligibility, or check for your whānau, at www.warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz
