Precautionary shutdown of city water main

The Team from Hamilton City Council

River levels which could potentially affect the Eastern Bulk Water Main repair site have meant Council has halted supply from this water main until the site can be assessed.

The shutdown is precautionary only, and does not affect water quality. It does mean that the city will be supplied from just the Western Main for around 48 hours, so residents are asked to reduce non-essential water use where possible to reduce pressure issues across the network. Effects are likely to be lower water pressure in some elevated areas of the eastern suburbs, particularly Hillcrest, but if you have a water outage please contact our 24-hour call centre on 838 6699.

Cut down your power bill this autumn!

Electric Kiwi

See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.

3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.

4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.

5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.

I am partnering with a colleague in Chch that sends Bras to Samoa. Very few woman can afford bras there. For the woman that receive 2 bras each, their self esteem rockets. There are life changing stories of them being able to attend work interviews with confidence. Teenage and young women begin to feel heaps better about themselves.
I know that the cost of these ourselves means we hate throwing them out.
One moving story was when a catholic nun received her 2 bras, she was moved to tears. Her colleague another nun had turn about wearing the one bra. For these two women it meant that for the very first time they could attend their church together as without a bra they both felt they couldn't attend. Something we take so for granted when we reach for another under garment can be life changing.

Donate your good condition but no longer wanted bras. I will be taking the next lot in late May although will send to Chch if I have heaps.
Any sorts welcome; maternity, large and small size, mastectomy. Even if a wire is missing we will remove the other wire.
If you want to collect from your family or work colleagues then that is even better.
Drop them in to me. Feel free to leave if no one home in letter box or on doorstep.
20 Yorkshire Rd.
These are then packed around electronics or other delicate/fragile item in a larger container. Supporting all the way...
Thanks heaps.
