Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a nasty, rusty surprise.
I'm certain I've seen something like this here in Aotearoa-NZ, but can't for the life of me recall where. It was in the back of the medicine cupboard. Let us know if you've seen, had - or have - one in your home.

After recognising the children were being “sucked out”, unable to repel the rip’s overwhelming strength, Mark McAdams didn't hesitate to "strip down" to his underwear and brave the treacherous waters to save the siblings, thought to be aged around 7 and 9, on Monday afternoon.
“My mission was to save the kids, but once I got a hold of them, I knew I was in trouble as well. If two surfers weren’t close by to call over, we were gone. All three of us were gone,” McAdams said.
The Porirua City Council will discuss whether a flotation device can be installed at the north end of Tītahi Bay, following the near-drowning.
“We recognise the near-drowning at Tītahi Bay this week was not what we want to see at a beach in Porirua, and we will be talking to the right people about how it can be made safer for swimmers and other users,” a council spokesman said.

It says it has encountered several cases of parvovirus – a highly infectious and often fatal disease – in the Cannons Creek area.
"Our Inspector has door knocked in the area to warn of the risk of parvovirus and the importance of vaccinating their pets. They are currently working with the owners and ensuring the dogs are getting the veterinary care that they need."
Parvovirus can affect dogs of all ages, however, it is more common in unvaccinated puppies under six months old. The virus is spread by contaminated faeces and vomit and can remain in the environment for 12 months, sometimes longer.
Symptoms of parvovirus typically include lack of appetite, depression, lethargy, fever, vomiting and diarrhoea (sometimes bloody). Just taking your pet for a walk down the street to the park can put them at risk of parvovirus if they’ve not finished their course of vaccinations

The great kiwi deck, every home should have one. But there's a decking debate raging in DIY and Reno circles: Should the grooves go up or down?
We think we've settled the argument here.
