Mower engine runs well but when the starter bit on the top broke I put in synthetic grass so no more mowing for me. The bit that broke is the puller that the rope is attached to.
A lot chopped down, if anyone wants some let me know. (Don’t buy a gym subscription, just get a rural property instead.)
Are your teens asking to go partying? There’s some questions you’ll need to ask them.

Enjoy a relaxing boat ride sailing through Tōtaranui/Queen Charlotte Sound, taking in the beautiful and abundant flora, fauna and wildlife that were recognised and cherished by both Māori and European settlers centuries ago.
At Meretoto/Ship Cove, hear stories passed down by descendants of the first iwi that settled in this region, and learn about how the first encounters at Meretoto may explain why Cook returned here more than anywhere else in Aotearoa.
The tour will also visit Motuara Island, significant for Māori and as the place where Cook claimed sovereignty over the South Island. Motuara was also where Cook and his crew established productive gardens. I

Three years ago the National Government passed a law change mandating that all rental properties must have underfloor and overhead insulation, unless installing it was not practical. This came into effect on July 1.

Sue Weaver's photo from 1947 shows how Blenheim has since spread towards the Wither Hills. Do you remember when there were more paddocks on Alabama Rd than houses?

This lowlife/lowlifes delivered some wood to my daughter today that was absolutely drenched.
My wife was promised that the wood was dry and ready to burn. We needed it urgently and these "bottom feeders" ripped us off!
We weren't there to check it our daughter was.
Please circulate this to everybody you can in any way you can.
Thanks
Signs have popped up on Middle Renwick Rd urging motorists to drive with their lights on during the day, after one resident's safety concerns.
What do you think? Are lights needed during daylight hours?
It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

Need someone to do few small repair jobs plus waterblasting deck and concrete back yard. Cheers
An "old and tired" woolshed in the Wither Hills will be repaired to hold one last shearing, before potentially being replaced.
The almost 100-year-old woolshed at the end of Old Redwood Rd and at the base of Mount Vernon was issued an Improvement Notice by WorkSafe in May.

Hi. Does anyone have an older spa pool that they would like to sell? In good working order please. Thanks very much.

The multi-million dollar project was shelved in 2016.

What do you think? Do you think Picton should have a gondola?
Picton is expected to hit 100,000 cruise ship passengers for the first time during the 2019-20 season, which kicks off in October. That's up 15,000 passengers from last season.
What do you think? Is the seaside town ready for the increase? What could it do to better prepare in future?

Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.
The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?
