Jandals. The good old Kiwi flip flop. When the sun is blazing down, the rubber shoe can take you from the morning stroll to get a paper, the beach, and then on to a bar.

He is recovering well. This post is about the lovely young woman and the gentleman with her whose car my cat ran in front of. They stopped, scooped him up and bought him to us, She was very upset and I'm hoping someone reading this may have heard her talk about this and can pass on a message to her that the cat has survived and, given recovery time, will be fine. She was so distraught and obviously cared a great deal and the thought that she has this horrible experience to finish 2018 with really saddens me. -- who knows if someone may know her. I know it's a long shot but I feel I have to try. In my concern for my cat at the time I failed to get their names or numbers. They were the ones who contacted the emergency vet for us and showed us great kindness and caring, instead of just dumping the cat and running. There are such good people out there.
A glass Table with 6 chairs is for sale. We brought the table and chairs around 3 years ago and haven't used it much so it's in good condition except for small tears on 2 chairs.
Hi Neighbours,

As you drive around our beautiful country this summer, you'll see honesty stalls, selling everything from fruit and vegetables to pine cones, dotted along our highways.
Honesty stalls in rural NZ may be the "Kiwi way", but thieves are making it difficult to survive.
One grower-family was targeted with a spate of $100 per day thefts.
But out-of-pocket growers have pledged to continue; keeping the "Kiwi tradition" alive, in spite of thieves.

Do you make the most of honesty stalls when you're driving throughout New Zealand?

Once you know which type of wasp to target, the next step is to use the correct control method.
- For paper wasps, there are commercially available sprays at hardware stores around the country. The important things to note are not to get too close (these sprays can go up to four metres), and to do it at dusk once the wasps have returned to their nests. If you are unsure where the nests are, you can usually follow the wasp to it, as they don't travel too far away.
- Vespex is a protein-based bait which is suitable for use on the vespula wasp species. This is usually done at landscape scale as a small tub of bait can cover a large area. You don't need to find the nests as the wasps carry the bait home with them. Vespex is not at all attractive to bees. If there is a problem in your area you can learn all about the use of vespex here. You will need to be an approved user - a short 10-minute video course is all that is required. Vespex is not suitable for paper wasps as they prefer live bait. You can also contribute to our fight against wasps here: givealittle.co.nz...
We want to know what a day at the beach with the classics costs us.
So roll up, roll up ... there's nothing like licking a scoop of ice cream during the summer. How much do you pay at home, and when you are away? What is the most expensive ice cream you've bought on holiday?

The Kiwi day at the beach. It's what our summer memories are made of. It's an easy and fun way to spend a day in the sun - but is it still cheap?

This is my nephew in law and his wife Samantha is my niece through my sister's family. Dave is a photographer for people and teenagers who love skateboards. They were supposed to be with us before Xmas. for us (my partner and I) know they will be on the long road to recovering between 14-24 months. My partner is a survivor from his motorcycle accident and he knows what to feel like. I was a deaf health carer nurse and worked with many young teenagers and people in the hospital for 6-8 months many years ago. The photo below was taken 7 days ago and it is on the website GoFundme.com if you can donate or share with your family and friends.
