Another so-called 'Spark' scam in our email boxes

An encouragement to apply for a 'refund' on a supposedly twice-paid invoice made to Spark. If you don't click on the button to claim the overpayment within 12 days you won't receive the refund.

An encouragement to apply for a 'refund' on a supposedly twice-paid invoice made to Spark. If you don't click on the button to claim the overpayment within 12 days you won't receive the refund.
Be warned:
(a) there is a typo in the very unprofessional beginning - "Hello ,"
(b) Email address DOES NOT RELATE TO THE REAL SPARK.
(c) I am sure the real Spark WOULD NOT ENCOURAGE their customers to do any such thing.
(d) I am sure the real Spark WOULD NOT SET A TIMELINE on pressing any such button so DON'T DO IT!

Fridge Freezer

This fridge has two issues, plus couple of scratches etc etc. One issue is that last time I move house it broke the back support feet, so I have been using a piece of wood, as per photo. It's not a big issue to be honest.
The second problem is that I noticed from the last two months the fridge power goes off and it makes a long beep noise. Once I switch the plug off and on again the fridge goes back to normal. It happened few times in two months. I'm not even 100% sure if it's the fridge or a faulty power point.

Building with Logs in New Zealand

Bill Knight, Liz Brock.

Log House Publishing Company, Limited, 1989.

Soft cover, 128 pages, illustrated.

Very good condition.

Log homes are as special as the people who build them. Handcrafted and individual, these buildings reflect their owners' personalities in a unique way. The art of log building has undergone a worldwide renaissance in recent years, in North America, Japan, the United Kingdom and New Zealand.

In this book New Zealand log builders Bill Knight and Liz Brook set out to describe and illustrate the various stages of building a log home. In clear, lively style they cover cost, drawing up plans, selecting and felling trees, choosing a site, laying foundations, the tools for the job and how they work and the different building techniques.

Facing the Haka: The challenge, the emotion, the inspiration (book)

Andy Burt And Jamie Wall

Hardback, 288 pages, large format, illustrated. 2020

Excellent condition

The story of the All Blacks from the other side of halfway. Big names from all their fiercest rivals talk about meeting the world's most successful rugby team in some of the greatest tests of all time.

This brilliant selection of photographs and stories describes what it means to stare down the most famous ritual in sport, from the perspective of those who have been there. Facing the Haka examines the significance that the All Blacks' haka has in the wider rugby world, as well as the deep respect opponents have for the team.

This is about standing in front of the haka, meeting the All Blacks on those key occasions, and reliving the stories of the games that followed. Facing the Haka covers many crucial moments in rugby history with great storytelling, fresh insights and all the information a fan could ask for.

The Benefits of Clean Curtains

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean Hamilton

Curtains are an essential part of any home décor. They not only add beauty to a room but also serve practical purposes such as providing privacy, blocking light, and insulating the room. However, curtains can also become a haven for dust, dirt, and allergens, which can be harmful to your health. … View moreCurtains are an essential part of any home décor. They not only add beauty to a room but also serve practical purposes such as providing privacy, blocking light, and insulating the room. However, curtains can also become a haven for dust, dirt, and allergens, which can be harmful to your health. Regular cleaning of curtains can help remove these particles and keep your home healthy and clean.

Here are some reasons why cleaning curtains regularly is beneficial:

1. Remove Dust and Dirt: Curtains, like any other household item, collect dust and dirt over time. This can cause allergies, respiratory problems, and other health issues. Regular cleaning of curtains can help remove these particles and improve indoor air quality.
2. Improve the Look of Your Home: Clean curtains can improve the overall look of your home. They can add a fresh and inviting atmosphere to any room.
3. Prolong the Life of Curtains: Regular cleaning can help prolong the life of your curtains. Dirt and dust particles can cause the fabric to wear and tear faster than normal. Regular cleaning can prevent this and help extend the life of your curtains.
4. Remove Odours: Curtains can absorb odours from cooking, smoking, and other activities. Regular cleaning can help remove these odours and keep your home smelling fresh.
5. Protect from Sun Damage: Curtains can fade and become damaged over time from exposure to sunlight. Regular cleaning can help remove any build-up of dirt and dust particles that can contribute to sun damage.
6. Prevent Mould and Mildew Growth: Curtains that are not cleaned regularly can become a breeding ground for mould and mildew. Regular cleaning can prevent the growth of these harmful substances.

In conclusion, regular cleaning of curtains is important for both health and aesthetic reasons. It helps remove dust, dirt, and allergens, improves the look of your home, prolongs the life of your curtains, removes odours, protects from sun damage, and prevents mould and mildew growth. Therefore, it is recommended to add curtain cleaning to your regular cleaning routine to maintain a clean and healthy home.
