The tidy two-bedroom house being given away for free after developers bought the Lower Hutt section it sits on, has found a new home and family.
Former owner Benjamin Johnson said the building had found new owners and will be removed to its new site in March. Now, he is giving away a second home, which is also on land owned by the developers.
A four-bed bungalow, the house is 130sqm with two reception rooms, a bathroom and ensuite, its size and shape means the home will have to be split in half to move, so will cost considerably more to move than the first free house.

Although it's markings look like it's wild, it's meek behaviour this morning says maybe not?
A small rabbit was found on Ariki St this morning after a cat had terrorized it allowing me to just pick it up. I've crated him for the day with food and water in the off chance it is a pet gone AWOL.

It's only young but if this wee thing belongs to you or looks familiar, please get in touch.

How to Prevent Mouldy Curtains and Blinds

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean (The Curtain Store)

Why does mould appear in the first place?
Mould grows in damp areas where there is a food source such as dust, dirt or organic material. That’s why single glazed or drafty windows, where condensation and dust are common, are often a problem area.

Why does mould appear in the first place?
Mould grows in damp areas where there is a food source such as dust, dirt or organic material. That’s why single glazed or drafty windows, where condensation and dust are common, are often a problem area.

What are some tips for preventing mould growth?
Clean soft furnishings regularly according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually involves a regular light vacuum, with less frequent dry cleaning or laundering. Regularly clean windows and wipe down window surrounds and venetian blinds or shutters with a mild detergent in warm water.

Does the material of the curtains affect how much mould will grow?
Yes, consider selecting window coverings manufactured from man-made materials, particularly in damp areas such as the bathroom, kitchen and on south-facing windows. It’s best to use a wipe-able, water-resistant blind or shutter in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Even man-made fabrics don’t cope well in those environments.

How do I remove the mould?
Once mould develops it’s best to nip it in the bud as early as possible with a thorough clean. Keep reading: www.curtainclean.co.nz...

A campaign for the reinstatement of a direct bus service between Wellington Airport and Lower Hutt is gaining traction, with 1100 supporters getting on board in just three days.
On Friday, Hutt City Council announced it, along with Hutt South MP Ginny Andersen and Lower Hutt-based National MP Chris Bishop, had started a campaign, called Fight for the Flyer, asking people to provide feedback on the Airport Flyer route to the Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) as it consults on its upcoming Regional Public Transport Plan.
The push comes after Wellington Airport axed the route because it was no longer commercially viable.
