House & pet sitter available (from 27th April)
Hi, I'm Ben, I'm 33 and I'm a born/bred Nelsonian. I do landscaping in Nelson. I've recently been enjoying house & pet sitting for a few friends and family and am keen to continue. I don't charge providing you just need someone to do the basics (feed and walk a pet or two, water veggie garden, keep house in order, etc.).
Please call/text me on 027 452 8669 if you'd like to know more about me/meet me. I can get some references too if you want. I'm available from Saturday, 27th April.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
