Create hours of fun for children with some off-cuts of timber and Resene Blackboard Paint or Resene Chalkboard Paint. Once dry your children or grandchildren can draw all over the buildings to create their own looks.

This potty stool was made by a qualified joiner in 1944 for his little daughter.
It could be used as a seat or footrest.
The lid lifts up and it can be used for storage ( newspaper etc)
Solidly made and a nice do-er-upper project.
There is a hole in the bottom where the potty went .

Measurements:
Height 35cms
Width 44cms
Depth 32 cms
The top is hand done needlework but would probably need removing and either cleaning or replacing.
I think it is made of RImu. Dark stained.
Strongly built.
A not too difficult project to do.
Thankyou for looking.
These ceramic cat bookends date from the 1930s. They feature two cats. Orange and white.
No chips or cracks.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni
Wishing everyone a safe and happy Easter long weekend! 🐰💙

Mayor Viv Napier said Council’s decision was a positive step for the community.
"Wellington Water is a large, specialist provider focused on delivering excellence in three waters services. It has demonstrated its commitment working with each of its councils to understand their priorities and deliver on their long term plans.
"South Wairarapa has its own distinct needs for water services, and I’m confident Wellington Water will take a customer-first approach in working with council and residents to understand and meet the needs of our customers."

As we’re going into colder weather it becomes more important to keep safety a top priority. Did you know that in water, the body loses heat 20 to 30 times faster than it does in air! 😲 We encourage boaties to remember these five simple precautions:
• Wear your lifejacket
• Take two waterproof ways to call for help
• Check the marine weather forecast
• Avoid alcohol
• Be a responsible skipper
And remember, if in doubt, don’t go out 🐟
