Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

Its a bit of a grey Sunday morning so a walk amongst the flowers is just what you need to brighten things up. It is also a perfect day for taking photographs of beautiful flowers. Dewdrops on the dahlias? There is so much to see at the moment so you are very welcome to visit and share the garden with us. This is our last open day until later in the year as we need to get busy bulb planting for our Spring displays. Hope to see you soon. Carolyn.

UPDATE: Thanks everyone for your responses. I got a cable but the bloody thing still isn't reachable. I guess it goes on the tip now.
=================

I need a USB cable that fits this kind of plug.

I had one of these but threw it away a while ago because honestly, who is ever going to use one of these? Well, as it turns out, the touch screen on our printer died, so while the printer itself is perfectly functional, I can't use it. If I can connect to it via usb, I might be able to configure it that way.

Does anyone have one of these to spare? Doesn't have to be free.
