It's been a mixed summer so far for New Zealand. Much of the country has seen record breaking temperatures, drought-conditions and scrub fires. But in recent days the West Coast and Southland have experienced heavy rains, flooding, evacuations and closed roads. Our thoughts are with affected.

But in recent days the West Coast and Southland have experienced heavy rains, flooding, evacuations and closed roads. Our thoughts are with affected.
Our skies have been coloured by smoke blown over from the Australian bushfires, meanwhile Wellingtonians are just stoked if they get to see the sun.
How has your summer been?

Testing showed high levels of blue-green algae (benthic cyanobacteria) upstream of the SH1 Bridge.
The same toxic algae was found in the river earlier this month, further west at the Cones Rd bridge between Rangiora and Loburn.
People should avoid the area of the Ashley/Rakahuri River and animals, particularly dogs should not be allowed near the water until the health warning has been lifted, a statement said.

Windows' catches are some of the most well used and abused moving parts of any house and therefore most likely to fail.
If you have any loose, wobbly or broken window catch around the house, show them some TLC this Valentine's week and book a visit with Exceed!

For you info - The Cerwin Vega VS-120 speakers comes with a 3-way bass reflex system to combat the loud bass rumblings the speakers were capable of producing. The power input of the VS-120s was 255 watts at 8 ohms. This could be increased with the installation of after-market components designed to enhance power consumption.
Speaker Components
The Cerwin Vega VS-120s comes with the traditional speaker components of a woofer, a mid-range component and a tweeter. The woofer on the VS-120 had a diameter of 12 inches. The mid-range speaker was 4 inches in diameter while the tweeter's diameter was 1 inch.

North Canterbury-based fabricator Colin Wightman has supported several tiny home owners who have had to go before the courts, and is now heading a hikoi to the steps of Parliament.
He said it was necessary to take such extreme action because people's health and wellbeing was being affected by over-zealous councils, with no solutions coming from the Government or the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.

There's an enduring belief that Wellington is our second-largest city. We must dispel that myth, reporter Charlie Mitchell says.
Do you think Christchurch should officially be named as New Zealand's second city or should Wellington retain its title?
