Huge flames, incredible stunts, a real-life bed of nails - it’s a show to keep every member of the family on the edge of their seat!

When: 5th December 2017
Where: Napier Municipal Theatre, Hawkes Bay

We look forward to seeing you there!

Pay It Forward
Nanogirl believes that science is for everyone, and the Nanogirl Labs team work hard to ensure that tickets to our Nanogirl Live! events are affordable. Despite those efforts, for some New Zealanders, theatre shows like this are still very special events that do not fit within the family budget.

Through our 'Pay-It-Forward' programme, you can help make science and engineering accessible for everyone. For every 'Pay-It-Forward' ticket you purchase, you enable someone who would not otherwise have had the chance to see this live science spectacular to come along. Only available via the Regent Theatre box office.

Has a front handle brake and rear peddle brakes. Front and rear reflectors.

Bike lock and light not included.

I’ll give it a clean and polish for the buyer.

It will be available for pick up or delivery in the week before Christmas. He doesn’t know he’s getting a bigger one. I’ll even give you the matching medium sized helmet, the plastic outer is cracked but some clear duct tape should work nicely or get a replacement cover. And I’ll add a set of kids emergency lights and siren. The backing, where it attaches is broken but you could glue or duct tape it to the helmet. You’d never wonder where your child is with those.

Price: $50

Firewood

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

I know it’s only spring, weird though the weather may be lately, but have you thought about next year? Probably not.

I know it’s only spring, weird though the weather may be lately, but have you thought about next year? Probably not.

So, let me tell you a secret. Now is the time to order your firewood delivery.

I’ve just been down to Tumu to pick up a boot load, just in case. They have so much wood at the moment that if you ordered it now you’d get it delivered well in advance of needing it, and long before demand forces the price up.

$140 for a cord delivered or 2 cord for $260. And if you get it now, you will know it will be dry for winter.

You can also buy by the boot/trailer/horse float/ute if you have a tow bar, or by the truck load.

So, give it a thought and give them a call, now, to save ending up like so many this past winter, myself included.

To call Tumu 06 873 0990
or email bins&pallets@tumu.co.nz (copy and paste the link. Hyperlink isn’t working)
or, if you are old school, fax them on 06 873 0992

My rant for the day

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Is it just me, or is it bloody inconsiderate of bin companies to have their drivers emptying wheelie bins at 4.45am?!

Does that happen every week and I don't hear it, or was this morning special?

I could not believe it. I thought my shed door was banging in the wind and got up to walk … View more
Is it just me, or is it bloody inconsiderate of bin companies to have their drivers emptying wheelie bins at 4.45am?!

Does that happen every week and I don't hear it, or was this morning special?

I could not believe it. I thought my shed door was banging in the wind and got up to walk across the wet grass, barefoot, in the dark, to check. No, the door was secure. Then, as I walked inside I heard it again, along with the rumble of a diesel engine.

What the h&^%!

I don't know about everyone else's, but my bin company says to have my bin out by 7 am. Who on earth empties wheelie bins in a residential area at 4 bloody 45 am? If anyone can tell me, I'll happily ring the company and complain. I get that the people have a job to do, but that's worse than the courier drivers who used to turn up and ring my doorbell at 5.15am.

Seriously, can they not see it is dark out and most people who don't have to get up that early, or who have/have not been kept awake most of the night with coughing kids, or babies, are STILL ASLEEP and would like to stay that way!

A little consideration would go a long way to making life more pleasant. We already have enough stopping, most of us, getting a decent nights sleep (snoring partners, coughing kids, domestic worries, finances, study, the future, the past etc), without rubbish collectors adding to the strain.

Or, is it just me?!

Like thunder, fireworks can kill chicks in the eggs, and, if the chicks become disoriented in the aviary hey can hurt themselves or die of shock. Ive also seen horses injure themselves due to fireworks. Its a high cost all round.
