I broke one of the wheels last weekend carrying a dishwasher. Other than that and being a bit tatty, it's all good.
Pickup from Paraparaumu.
My wife found this on her walk this morning. Tell me in which park you lost this, and I'll drop it back to you.
It's not Christmas without a Brass Band!
Come and join the fun!
Hi, I am having a garage sale at my Lock up at 10 Birmingham Street, Paraparaumu. All sorts, in good condition. See you there

We have a wide range of varieties in all sizes and colours (including a so-called blue tomato) originating from all over Europe, North America, Mexico and even Afghanistan. Heirloom tomatoes are those that have been handed down through the generations for their superior performance and, above all, flavour.
This week, in addition to our regular range of Zucchini, we are also introducing 'Tondo Chiaro Di Nizza', an Italian round Zucchini much sought-after in Europe for its flavour and versatility. Not only can 'Tondo' be sliced like a regular Zucchini, it can be cut in half and filled with your favourite savoury stuffing. Ideal as a side dish at a barbecue or even a light main meal.
And, last but not least, we have Gherkins for pickle lovers as well as a selection of Cucumber.
