Dear neighbours,

My name is Sonja and I am looking for a piece of land to lease for my tiny house on wheels. I will be living in and working from the tiny house - so having good cellphone coverage (i.e. 4G Wireless for Internet access) is essential.
I need to be able to connect to power and water and I have a composting toilet. I will need an area for recycling compost. I would also love a little garden and/or vege patch.
The tiny house is 2.5m x 7.3m (9m including the drawbar). The piece of land needs to be reasonably flat with access to a vehicle with long trailer.
I am quiet and considerate but also like socialising. In my spare time I play table tennis, do waka ama, boot camp and love the outdoors.
My tiny house will arrive from the North Island (where it is currently being build) on 2nd October so I am looking to move on to the land that day.
Please let me know if you know or hear of a place that would be suitable for my tiny house and myself.
You can contact me on 021 176 3741 or sonja.adamek@yahoo.com.
I have been renting a tiny house on wheels for the last year and am happy to provide references from the land owners.
Cheers,
Sonja

Weka are more abundant in Nelson and the West Coast than anywhere else in NZ and new research has shown they can disperse seeds over long distances. Do you experience weka around your home?

Hi there
My name is Natalie. I am looking for a home for myself and my two children aged 12 and 8. I am 36, a full time student half way through a four year degree. I have no pets. I dont smoke. I live a quiet life and I have excellent references. I have no baggage, nothing to hide, I really am just an honest good human trying to find a nice home to live in with my children. I am looking for a 3 bedroom home in motueka that is not going to cost me more than half of my income 😔. I understand that market rates are what they are, but I simply cannot afford to pay anymore than $450 p/w. My situation is not urgent, I have a roof over my head, but I am looking for a more suitable home as my current house... well it is not great. I have been living here coming up a year but took the house on as my options were extremely limited. I am really after a long term place that I can make home. A home I can be proud to live in.
Please, if you can help then get in touch.
Thank you 🙂

“What would you do if you had one chance to turn your life around?

A wine-fueled comedy from NZ writer/ director Casey Zilbert and producer Steve Barr featuring our own stunning Marlborough wine region. Get your tickets at: suter.statecinemas.co.nz...

I have a reasonable amount of well established Roses of various types in my garden, and I'm planning to dig them all out (not my type of thing).
It seems a shame to just dump them - so if anyone would like them, feel free to come and dig them out!

It seems a shame to just dump them - so if anyone would like them, feel free to come and dig them out!
I will try to take photos, but as they aren't in bloom, not sure what you can tell about them other than they have thorns that hurt :)
Update - seems I have enough takers - I will mark as taken once all are dug up

Two abandoned utes were found half-submerged in the tide at Tahunanui Beach on Saturday morning - in an area where driving is prohibited.
The vehicles had been caught in the surf on Friday night, and had to be pulled out by a digger on Saturday afternoon.
