When left alone in your pipework for an extended period, water can become stagnant and while it's still safe to drink, it may taste unpleasant, so it’s a good idea to run the tap for a while to make sure you have fresh drinking water.

If you would like to get some fresh fish for dinner tomorrow night you can order here.
Our fish comes in daily from fishermen around Wellington and collaborators around the country (such as Barnes Wild Oyster for Bluff Oysters).
Our goal is to get the fish prepared and delivered to your door within 24 hours of it hitting the deck!
We deliver Monday to Friday, and cover the bottom half of the North Island (Wellington to Palmerston North).

Are you a commuter who's been looking forward to a faster trip into town, a business owner hoping the project would bring you more customers, or someone thoroughly sick of roadworks?
We'd love to hear what you think so let us know in the comments. [Remember to mark your post NFP if you don't want it used in our story]
Health and Safety is at the heart of work at Wellington Water, and that means we’ve had to be even more vigilant than ever over the last few weeks.
Here’s Foreman Don on site in Epuni keeping a careful eye on procedures.

More than 150 emerging contemporary artists are set to inspire any art collector in this dynamic virtual exhibition.
This new initiative is the brainchild of the show as it embraces the opportunity to continue to support some of NZ’s hottest new artists on the art scene despite the limitations of Covid-19 lockdown.
All artists have been selected by a panel of experts, promising quality and talent deserved of any collection. Art lovers can be assured that they can purchase with confidence, liaising directly with the artists.
Visitors can explore new artworks by some of the show’s favourite and most successful artists including Jane Blackmore, Runa + Holly, Tanya Blong, Joel Hart and Nikki Corbishley while discovering the hottest and newest artists on the NZ Arts scene. Glass works by the talented Richard Landers (a crowd favourite at last year’s show) also feature, alongside contemporary photographic works, exquisite and traditional watercolours, gorgeous florals, and artworks that provoke thought and conversation.
Go to artshow.co.nz where you can browse and purchase hundreds of original artworks all from the comfort of your own home from May 1st. Show your support and help keep the arts alive and active in NZ!

Have you been to the country's first "drive-thru" garden centre in Plimmerton yet? Owner Richard Persson said he sold six weeks worth of vege seedlings in three days because "we're all alcohlic gardeners this side of lockdown".
Vege seedlings have been selling out because gardeners are buying them up like crazy now and the growers weren't able to plant at level 4. But they're warning other shortages of fruit and native trees are still to come and could be long-lasting.
