Hi everyone,
My little 10 year-old sister and I have some more freshly-picked, pesticide-free habaneros off our bush that we would like to sell to earn some pocket money.

The $1 coin is for size reference, these habaneros are on average 4x to 5x bigger than normal chillis and are really hot so you only need to cut up a small portion into food. The rest can be frozen until needed.

$1 each or 6 for $5.

Please PM me or email me at haydenthemonkey@gmail.com for more info. Thanks!

Here it is, the grand finale. Experience the energy of some of the capital’s best poets as they battle it out to be the new Wellington Poetry Slam Champion!


Date: Saturday 2 November| Time: 7:00 pm to 1:00 pm | Cost $15 waged - $10 unwaged | Venue: Taiwhanaga Kahau — Auditorium lower ground floor


It’s all been building up to this. Across the year, Motif Poetry and Poetry in Motion have been running slams, now the winners will come together and battle it out to be Wellington’s 2019 Poetry Slam Champion.

Poetry Slam is the competitive format taking the world by storm. A high energy, enthralling event where performance poets are judged by random members of the audience in an arbitrary but totally engaging way.

Since 2011, many of Greater Wellington’s finest performance poets have competed and this year’s slams have been no different. Sold out events, packed open mics and searing hot verse screams out that poetry is alive and kicking in the capital.
The winners will travel to Christchurch in November to compete for the title of New Zealand Slam Champ, as well as a guest spot at Verb Festival Poetry Showcase.
Be quick, this event always sells out! Come prepared for a CASH ONLY bar.
-
Part of the Festival of Slam Wellington. A handful of spoken word and poetry groups in Wellington have banded together to create a day of poetry facilitation, workshops and events.


Motif Poetry and Poetry in Motion are two of Wellington’s spoken word poetry communities, they run slams, open mics, workshops, host local and travelling poets, and manage the annual Wellington slam.


NOTE: the National Library is fully wheelchair accessible. Please see the following page to download an accessibility map for the venue: natlib.govt.nz...

Free ... Samsonite Cosmolite Extra Lite Hard Cover Luggage x 5 + Jag (Blue Colour) x 1 - needs to go ASAP as taking up garage space. If no one shows any interest either today or tomorrow then I will give them away to Salvation Army.


Apart form airline luggage tags on them and some scratches the bags are in good condition ... no cracks, handles all OK, built-in TSA number locks (000) are all working fine including the full rotating wheels. They are very tough but super light at the same time ... made with Samsonite's patented CURV technology.


In one of the pictures you will see that one of the hinges of the Big Red Samsonite is broken ... but that should matter much as the zip line in these bags are super tough - that's why Samsonite gives 10yr warranty on these bags. These bags are NOT 10yrs old - but I don't have the proof of purchase (misplaced or lost) hence can't give it to you ... also, we just came back from South Africa with that bag (broken hinge) and nothing happened to it.

If you want, you can also take that bag to Lesvos (the bag repair people inside the Wellington Railway station) ... I am sure they can repair it ... those guys are luggage magicians. :-)
