Finnish Skittles is a great family game. I bought it about 3 years ago in Wellington but it has not been played as I feel that my section is not suitable for playing the game on. You need a good flat lawn. The whole family can be involved. You can see comparable prices on Google. I paid between $80… View moreFinnish Skittles is a great family game.

I have lavender plants for sale, they are not flowering yet but have a beautiful blue flower. They have well established roots for planting out. These plants make a very attractive border, bloom all summer and keep the mosquitoes away. Please contact me if you are interested, thanks Natasha.
I am looking for recommendations for a person/company to trim some hedges on my property. This will only be one or two cuts while I recover from an injury. Thanks in advance. Doug

The tomatoes are ready to go in the ground as soon as you are ready to plant. This week we are featuring a number of varieties suitable for pot culture, including WindowBox Red, Ildi and Subarctic Plenty, said to be the world's earliest tomato and especially suited to a shorter growing season.
We have a good range of colourful cherry tomatoes - but note 'Sweet 100' will not be available until next weekend.
We have a number of different Zucchini, including the lovely crisp Italian varieties, plus some pumpkin and scallopini. And the beans (both climbing and dwarf) are just bursting to get out of their punnets and into the ground.
So come see us at the Waikanae(Saturday) and Otaki (Sunday)markets this weekend.
TELL US WHAT YOU WANT IN A COMMUNITY HUB IN WAIKANAE!

Terisa Ngobi, Sophie Handford and I had such a good discussion this week about Waikanae and its needs, and I would love to hear your views too -
While the replacement Waikanae Library is being redesigned, we have probably three years during which we do not have a community hub in the heart of Waikanae that you all can feel welcome in, apart from the Cameo rooms in Mahara Place –
They are a unique space in the town centre, ideal for smaller community groups to meet; for new groups to start up; for people to learn new things (currently card games and music but we are looking at all sorts of things) and – always – for people to pop in when they are passing or waiting for a train or bus and just want to put their feet up.
So tell us what you would like to see in a community hub – an internet connection so that we can have computers available for people to use or learn to use in this digitally demanding world?
Our JPs come every Tuesday morning, but would you also like to see a Citizens Advice volunteer available once a week? Age Concern?
Tell us what you think!
