Hello Hello !

I'm in a bit of a situation and thought to try my luck here !

I started a business last year, we are steady but very much still growing. With a reduction to zero work during Covid lockdown and a few other set-backs we are having to cut costs as much as possible. The Business Tax Return is due in a few weeks and I really need the expertise of an accountant to file the return, there are some expenses that need to be included to claim and after much research I am still confused and unsure. Accounts are tidy and allocated into Xero.

I have approached a few accountants, and very much planned to use their services, though for this immediate tax return we just cannot take on the cost. My beautiful partner is a web developer and has kindly offered a website to help with my needs, another option is an exchange of services that I can offer (I have a few). If you are or know of an accountant (preferably chartered) who is interested in an exchange of services please send me a message to organise a conversation.

Hope everyone is recovering ok, it's not easy,

Thank you.

Building 101: So you want to build a sleep out...

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

When I heard there would be changes to the consent rules around building sleep outs, I was excited. I've always wanted a tea house in my back yard... a garden room where I can do a bit of potting, maybe read a book, or just cool off in the shade.

Turns out it's not quite as simple as a trip to the hardware store to burn a hole in your credit card. If you're thinking of putting something up on your property, check in here first:

Auckland drought: Can you shower in 4 minutes?

Mikaela Wilkes Reporter from Homed

The Government wants Aucklanders to save 20L of water a day. But what does that mean at your house?

Buying efficient appliances and fixing one-off leaks can make huge water savings, but so can small changes to daily habits. If every Aucklander showered in four minutes, we'd save 80 million … View more

Buying efficient appliances and fixing one-off leaks can make huge water savings, but so can small changes to daily habits. If every Aucklander showered in four minutes, we'd save 80 million litres of water a day.

Our Tuesday meeting was so busy that no-one had a chance to take photos...yes, I need to work on my time management :/

Andy evoked a range of emotions with his Winter-themed Table Topics (David Hasselhoff...hmm), while David made it topical and technological with his "A Toast to Zoom". And we all know more about "Toast Rack" - here's to building a helpful resource library together.

Hope you can join us on 23 June for a National Volunteer Week-themed meeting. If you're a guest, just message your details to get the Zoom link. Look forward to meeting you 😀
