Last summer, with kids coming to stay, I went to the Warehouse to grab some buckets and spades for the beach. They had them alright, but they were flimsy, bendy even, and way less than useful at Tahunanui beach. Fortunately, I found solid ones at Para and all was sorted for the kids

They had them alright, but they were flimsy, bendy even, and way less than useful at Tahunanui beach. Fortunately, I found solid ones at Para and all was sorted for the kids
Trouble is I could easily see the future of those zillions of The Warehouse plastic beach toys nation wide – soon broken and discarded at the beach by disappointed children so I wrote to The Warehouse explaining that I accepted it was too late to change that summer’s stock but asking they got better stuff this year.
The Warehouse responded saying they stood by the quality of their stock and it was the parents’ responsibility to stop their children littering.
Going back in this year I see their plastic spades can be bent into a circle with the gentle use of just one finger.
The buckets were, if possible, even flimsier.
The Warehouse may reckon it’s doing its bit by encouraging shoppers to not use single use shopping bags but they are doing parents, children and the environment – including all sea creatures – a major disservice (harm in the case of the sea creatures) selling such obviously not fit for purpose plastic to take to the beach.
My own kids buckets and spades only got taken to the op shop, battered but still perfectly serviceable, once they had left home and we finally cleared up after them.
This Christmas, if you don’t want to waste money on junk and do care for the environment you might want to look at how ‘single use’ a lot of The Warehouse stock – not just the buckets and spades – are.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!
A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.
Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.

Hi all,
A while ago I posted about how I had a plan to sell vegan ice cream at the Thursday market.
We are almost ready to sell! Just have to apply for a licence and find a place to get our ingredients.
Then we're all set.

We think we will be selling by late December/early January.
Thanks for the patience! 🙂

One of the great ways you can reduce your rubbish footprint is by composting your kitchen and garden waste.
Having a productive garden hinges on healthy soil, good gardening practices and a little bit of know-how. So we’ve prepared a handy Grow It Guide, see the Our Nelson story for details.
We’re so grateful to all the generous sorts who’ve chipped in to get us here. So, let’s lose the gifts… and turn our big day into a celebration with the nation.
For every $10 donated from you, Spark Foundation will give $10 too – up to a grand total of $10,000 across all 10 charities.

As you see five of my recent posts consists of 1200-1500 words however I don’t except anyone to write that many, even as little as 500-1000 words is completely fine.
Message me if you’re interested, there is no pay at the moment sorry, however down the line as the blog starts earning money I will be able to compensate you for your services and I have no doubt that this blog will start earning.
I just require people who have a knack for both research and writing, cheers.
