BOOKCASES and/or SHELVES

David from Pukehangi - Mangakakahi

Hi,

I'm thoroughly sick of having my books sitting around in their packing boxes. And would love some bookcases & shelves to display them on. I'm not worried about their looks, I just want to be able to see my books. I can do minor repairs & cleaning, if they need that. What I cannot afford to do is pay new or near that prices.

thanks

Thank you :)

Reporter Rotorua News

Thank you. We don’t say those two words nearly enough. So at this busy time of year I want to make sure you hear them from us. It’s a great privilege to run a local newspaper.

So at this busy time of year I want to make sure you hear them from us. It’s a great privilege to run a local newspaper. We’re there for all the joys and the frustrations of this area. We get to see our communities at their best and, occasionally, when they’re struggling. But what is a highlight for us is getting to know you. So a big thank you to all our readers who support us. Thank you to all of you who contribute to this paper. We appreciate all the people who have told us their stories. And thank you to all our friends in businesses who support us with their advertising. 2017 has been a momentous year. But what has been on display too often in the news has been what divides us rather than what brings us together. So as we head off for Christmas, I hope we remember all the things that bind us together. Like friends and families and the great places we choose to live. Let’s be thankful for all the good things we have right here. Merry Christmas, happy holidays. And thank you.

Wasp wipeout - can you help?

Last summer we embarked on an ambitious project to make a dent in the wasp population in the Nelson region. We fundraised and were able to lay 390km of bait lines in some of the region's most popular recreational areas, effectively making 10,000 hectares wasp free.

This summer we are delighted to announce we are expanding the programme to other parts of the country which are also affected by high wasp numbers. Vespex is laid in bait stations in late January and February when wasps change to a protein-based diet. It is of low toxicity and safe for bees. Results from last summer showed it has a 95%-99% success rate.

While a small amount of work is Government funded, we're going to raise more funds to get as many areas baited as possible, and we need your help. Go to our Popshop page to contribute to a wasp-free region

So join us in the battle. The more we raise the more areas we can cover.
