Closed For Repairs
Dear Riverside Milk Family,
I regret to inform you that our good old Brunimat Vending Machine has had some serious electronic issues and will be out of action until we can procure the needed replacement motherboard from Brunimat in Switzerland.
I have contacted Mr Alfred Bruni about this today and urged him to make all possible haste with sending us the required part as we have so many loyal customers relying on his fantastic machine to supply them daily with pure fresh farm milk. We hope they will courier and airfreight the part as quickly as possible and, with luck, be back up and running again in 10 days' time. This would then be Monday 27th November.
I sincerely hope you can forgive us for this inconvenience and the probable necessity to consume pasteurised milk over the next two weeks, as I don’t think there is any other raw milk available on this side of Christchurch.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your past and continued support enabling us to continue operating to supply you with real unadulterated milk here at the top of the South.
We will confirm our reopening data as soon as possible.
Aroha Nui,
Tristan
Riverside Milk Manager

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
