Demand is still tracking pretty high for this time of year – just look at the level of demand this year compared to the past two years!*

Supply from rivers in Wainuiomata has dropped out, and now we’re using a lot more water from our storage lakes.

Lake usage has averaged about 41MLD over the last week, and levels have dropped 9% in the last week.

Catchments are still very dry, and there isn’t much rain on the forecast! Please continue to observe water restrictions until they come off, and of course, always use water wisely.


*These graphs indicate demand in Porirua, Wellington, Lower Hutt, and Upper Hutt.

Katherine from Johnsonville

Hi,
I have 2 x wardrobes which had been used in the house and then for storage in the garage for several years.
I think they’re still suitable for garage storage but need a bit of a clean because of the happy spiders which are still living in them 😆

Hi,
I have 2 x wardrobes which had been used in the house and then for storage in the garage for several years.
I think they’re still suitable for garage storage but need a bit of a clean because of the happy spiders which are still living in them 😆
The doors of one of them has fallen off and I don’t have the patience to fix them.
If they’re not wanted, will be taking them to the tip soon.
Cheers,
Katherine.

Have you found yourself back in the classroom - virtual or otherwise - long after you left school? We’re looking for people who have taken steps to futureproof their careers by upskilling.

Perhaps you’re teaching yourself to code, or maybe you’ve enrolled in an evening class or online course to help your employment prospects. It might have been something you did with your employer’s blessing, or maybe you’ve struck out on your own.

Maybe you’ve struggled to find work and did it as a way to get back on the career ladder, or perhaps you’re concerned about the pace of change in your field and want to stay ahead.

Whatever your brand of lifelong learning, we want to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz
