As per a previous post about free grapefruit. We have now picked all the fruit. If you want some just bring a bag or box to put them in. If you have messaged me asking for some I have put aside a few for you.

Countdown is removing them from all stores and replacing them with a range of alternatives including bamboo, metal and paper straws.
The supermarket's move is expected to remove 11.6 million straws from circulation and the waste stream each year. WOW.
Do you think other NZ supermarkets should follow suit?

When you buy goods you have rights that protect you even if the warranty has expired. A warranty is extra to the protections in the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) and can’t override or replace these.

A warranty is extra to the protections in the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) and can’t override or replace these. This means a retailer can't just say you're out of luck because the warranty period has ended.
The CGA says that products have to be of an acceptable quality which means they must be fit for purpose (or do what they're made to do), last for a reasonable amount of time, be safe, and be free from any minor defects. What is “acceptable quality” is based on what you could reasonably expect taking into account things like the nature of the goods, what you paid for them, and any particular statements made about the goods.
If you have a problem with something you’ve bought and the warranty period has ended, you might still be entitled to have it repaired or replaced. Check out our information on your rights as a consumer or phone CAB on 0800 367 222.

Sue Williams will speak at Rotorua U3A’s October Forum about the work of the Kaharoa Kokako Trust whose aim is to protect the small kokako population within the Kaharoa Conservation Area, located mid-way between Lake Rotorua and Te Puke.
Predator control is an important aspect of the Trust's work. From a mere 24 birds two decades ago, there is now a population of 170.
The Trust's highly successful conservation programme was established 20 years ago by a group of volunteers. Their efforts now contribute to the national recovery of kokako by providing birds for translocation to other protected areas.
Their programme is now established as a model for other community conservation groups to follow.Sue will explain how the programme works and also, as the 2018/19 season starts, how we the public can help the Trust in its work.
Visitors warmly welcome with gold coin entry.
What: U3A Forum, Guest speaker, Sue Williams, Kaharoa Kokako Trust
When: 10am, Wednesday October 17. Doors open at 9.30 with refreshments.
Where: Bridge Club Rooms, Neil Hunt Park, Lynmore, Rotorua
