With torrential rain and flooding caused by an 'atmospheric river', should this event convince us all that climate change is real and we need to be taking action?

This satin wedding dress is free to a good home - to help create more good memories! :)

There is some slight mould on it so it needs to be cleaned but is still in good condition otherwise (it was only worn for a few hours after all! - and drycleaned before being stored away). This can potentially be dyed and turned into a ball dress.

It is around a size 10 with a halter neck and some beautiful embroideries as shown in the picture. There is a train that can be easily hooked up.

Persistent low-frequency hum/rumbling noise

Amanda from Wilton

Hi Neighbours,

Am I going crazy or has anyone else been hearing a persistent low-frequency hum/rumble (like an idling engine or generator) in the Wilton/Wadestown/Northland area? It’s not loud in terms of decibels but it is very penetrating, seems to be present 24/7 though especially … View more
Hi Neighbours,

Am I going crazy or has anyone else been hearing a persistent low-frequency hum/rumble (like an idling engine or generator) in the Wilton/Wadestown/Northland area? It’s not loud in terms of decibels but it is very penetrating, seems to be present 24/7 though especially noticeable in the quiet of night time, and is interfering with sleep. I experience it almost as much as a kind of vibration in my ears as an audible sound. It’s less noticeable outside or when there is other ambient noise (TV, wind/rain etc.) but is definitely coming from outside, at some distance away. I’m at the upper end of Cecil Rd., so I’m wondering if it could be coming from the port? I first noticed it for a couple of weeks over Christmas/new year, then it went away for a few days but has been back again for the past week or so.

I would sure like to know I’m not the only one hearing it! Would also love to know where it’s actually coming from and if it’s something that is likely to stop eventually.

Thanks for any ideas or insights!
