FREE FIREWOOD PINE and BLUE GUM

Sandi from Hurunui District

Dry seasoned firewood free for the taking for anyone with chainsaw muscle and a trailer. MUST help with clearing up what you dont want into my trailer for the burn pile. Limbs branches trunks small medium large. Tractor with FEL ( and driver) on site for assistance in pulling trunks out of the piles the loggers piled it in and loading large blocks onto your trailer.. There are about 6 burn piles that cant not burnt where they are so whilst I am pulling them apart to move them to burn elsewhere ( the loggers didnt listen to where I needed them putting!) there is a lot of good wood in amongst them ready for burning this year. ( Been down since Sept 2020) Need 4 WD vehicle preferably to cross paddocks as I dont want any 2 WD getting stuck and ruining the paddocks Spent two years repairing the paddocks after the loggers churned it all up with tracked vehicles! and I dont have time to tow people out. This is a working farm so any chilren need CLOSE supervision ( chainsaws tractors and powerful electric fences) but there are many cones that can also be collected if you want to bring bags. Situated 8 kms NW of Hawarden E mail spcooke@amuri.net

Worst Xmas ever?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.

Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
