Hi, does anyone have any large piping they don't need? Needs to be 30-40cm in diameter. I could use 1-3 metres. (If you have longer, I could get rid of it for you)
Thanks

News of a new two-storey development in Rangiora’s town centre has been met with a mixed reaction.
The Waimakariri District Council has announced vacant commercial land on the corner of High and Ashley streets has been sold, along with the building occupied by the BNZ bank.
The new owners, Cornershop Investments, have released a concept image of a two-storey building with office and retail space.
But residents have taken to social media to question the need for more retail and office space, and raised concern about the lack of car parks.
Mayor Dan Gordon said the sale was a good outcome for such a high profile site, on the corner of two busy streets.
"We are thrilled to be working alongside developers and shaping the ongoing growth and development of Rangiora.
"Residents often tell us one of the things they value the most about living in Waimakariri is the unique character of our townships and we are really pleased this project will continue to build on Rangiora’s character, look and feel."
Cornershop Investments is made up of Eileen and Murray Irvine, Bridget Hope and Gabe Rijpma, and Andrea and Jake Gardner.
The Irvines had been involved in other developments in Rangiora’s town centre including the Good St laneway.
"We all strongly believe in the future of Rangiora and are proud to be able to assist in its growth," Irvine said.
The response on social media has been mixed, with a number of people expressing support.
"Amazing, very exciting for Rangiora," said one comment.
One person said "very cool", while another said "looks great, nice work Waimakariri District Council."
But others raised concerns about empty office and retail spaces already on High St, a lack of carparks, the loss of greenspace and high priced leases.
"Looks great, but what will go in there? The new building opposite this site has been empty since it was built," one respondent said.
"Looks nice, but is it actually needed? I think a nice green space with seating would be nice," said another.
The soup bar opened inside of The Riverside Market. The soup bar offers Keto, Vegan and Gluten Free soup selections every day.
Soup and Cornbread combo is just $10.00
Happy from 3:00 with half price soup and cornbread combo.

Hi, anyone got a heap of 20L plastic buckets (usually white buckets with air-tight red lids that originally contained concrete powder)? I'd love 4-5 in good condition with lids but can take more buckets in poorer condition without lids.
Thanks a million.

After years of planning, Satisfy Food Rescue is excited work will start on the Kaiapoi Community Hub site soon.
The Waimakariri District Council is planning for site works to start in September, to kick start the proposed $6.8 million project in the former red zone, situated between Charters St and Courtenay Drive.
‘‘There is still a lot of work to do and we are going to need a lot of support from the community, but we are so excited that it is
starting soon,’’ Satisfy Food Rescue chairperson Phillipa Hunt said.
"It is pivotal for the project to be a success with purpose-built premises, so we can continue doing what we are doing, and to grow and provide more for the community groups that we look after."
Satisfy Food Rescue redistributes food from supermarkets and other outlets to more than 40 organisations, including food banks, in the Waimakariri and Hurunui districts, and in Christchurch.
The council is pitching in the first $1.6 million, and implementation project manager Duncan Roxborough said planning for enabling works, car park and croquet fields was in the detailed design stage.
He said the council is working closely with the recently established Kaiapoi Community Hub Trust and the Kaiapoi Croquet Club.
The trust was launched in March and is a collaboration between Satisfy Food Rescue, the Kaiapoi MenzShed and other community partners.
It has received a $200,000 grant from the Ministry of Social Development and is busy raising the remaining $5m.
Satisfy Food Rescue will occupy the northern end of the development, while the Kaiapoi MenzShed planned to build three sheds.
A shared community facility with a commercial kitchen and a large green space would also be established.
"It has such great potential in providing opportunities for collaboration and for all sorts of groups to be involved in ways we haven’t thought of yet," Hunt said.
The trust also planned to build an auditorium, with the possibility of a picture theatre and recording studio.
The Kaiapoi Croquet Club is also developing its own facility on the site with support from the council.
Other organisations had expressed an interest in joining the project and there were still sites available.
Speaking at last month’s Kaiapoi-Tuahiwi Community Board meeting, council community and recreation general manager Chris Brown said a
geotech report had been completed for the site.
Kaiapoi Community Hub Trust trustee Heath Kelly said the trust had several options to attract sponsors, including a legacy board and naming rights for buildings.
