A Will is a very meaningful document and it should be prepared with great thought and care.

As well as capturing what you want to do with all the things you own, your Will can also capture your hopes and dreams for the future and should include information about who should look after your children or even your pets.

Will-making is rising across the world as people consider the legacy they want to leave behind. As well as considering what you want to do with your assets - which might include your house and car, and any personal items - many New Zealanders also decide to do something significant and include charitable legacy in their Will.

Do you want to keep your dentures looking great and feeling comfortable? Don’t make these five common mistakes that can ruin your smile:

• Don’t brush them with toothpaste or bleach. They can harm the denture material. Use a soft brush and a denture cleaner instead.
• Don’t leave them dry. They can lose their shape and fit. Soak them in water or a denture solution every night.
• Don’t skip your dental visits. Your mouth can change over time and affect how your dentures fit. Get regular check-ups and adjustments from your dentist.
• Don’t wear them all the time. Your gums need some rest too. Remove your dentures for at least four hours a day to prevent irritation and infection.
• Don’t forget to rinse them after every meal. This can help remove food and bacteria that can cause bad breath and decay.

Follow these tips from The Denture Man and enjoy your beautiful smile with your dentures!

Spooky sounds are to be expected when your job involves a lot of wandering about the dark.

When the school empties out, silence can be almost deafening. Every squeak and creak are magnified a hundredfold. For the night staff who believes in ghosts, there needs to be reigning in of the imagination!

In the dark, Minties keep them company, coupled with jangling of the keys to chase ghosts away (whether real or imagined). No spook wants to stick around and listen to the obnoxious chewing echoing down the hallways, through the classrooms. That would drive any living soul insane!

2 part aviary (the long flight run extends off the side of the house area) or alter to make 2 separate aviaries. Could be adapted for other use also.
House section has floor in half base area and open to the ground in other half. Long run section is opened fully to the ground. One of the bottom runner boards is functional but needs replacing. There are connection holes in both parts of the aviary to allow for joining them. We have extra wire and boards that can be used to cover these if you want them. There are nests etc that come with the aviary areas. Come see if you want. They will need a couple of strong people to move them & a good size trailer.

House section: L 1.84m x W 1.26m. Two heights: lower 1.88m & upper 2.17m.
Full Run: L 2.35m x W 0.95m x 1.88m
