IVY CLOSING DOWN SALE
Well it has been a while since I posted anything about my daughter's little project Ivy. Her and a friend started their recycled clothing boutique in June this year. I was promoting their project on Neighbourly and was pleased to see that this was a good medium to promote their idea. But my last post was removed by Neighbourly as I was told that I could not promote Ivy on the noticeboard as it was a business. However those advertising their services for tuition, gardening etc seemed to be allowed to flout their wares.
Anyway their little Ivy project is coming to an end. They have completed their last Business Internal at school on this project and with the pressure of NCEA internals and exams coming up soon they have found it difficult to maintain the Ivy workload, schoolwork and sports. So they will be having their last Ivy Pop Up Shop for Quality Recycled Clothes on Sunday 30 September at the Women's Centre (Rest) Corner Russell & Eastbourne Streets 10am-3pm. There will be some spectacular bargains as all stock must go, so please come on down and support them one last time.
Thank you to the Heretaunga Women's Centre, all the Ivy sellers and customers, to the Olivia's sisters who have helped with flyers and modelling and to Neighbourly for hopefully allowing this last post on Ivy.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

Cleaning a heat pump
Hi everyone. Can anyone recommend a reliable and reasonable company to clean our heat pump. We used it on cold for a couple of days and when turning it back to warm it has a smell. We get it serviced yearly but the firm we use is expensive.
