Hi Everyone.
I'm going to be running an adult stencil art class called "Wine, Cheese and Stencils" on Saturday 17th August, 10am - 3pm at The Barn Studio, Wainui, if you'd like to have a go. Learn to cut and spray your own layered stencils using spray paint or acrylic, and then complete a beautiful stenciled canvas to take home. This is a stencil class with a twist- you also get wine, cheese and lunch provided! All welcome, beginners through to advanced. $65 for the day (includes all materials, lunch and a glass of wine). So why not grab a friend and come along? Hope to see you there!
Layal.

The Groves is a collection of simple buildings, designed well.

Within the community are 3 different types of homes catering to investors, families and young professionals. Each terraced home comes with a private back yard and each home comes with car parking and a private outdoor, green space, which flows out from the living room.

The forms and materials used to create The Groves hark back to the original West Auckland horticultural land uses. Inspired by glasshouses and simple farm buildings, you can see this reflected in the roof forms and materials used.

Matvin has a long history of building commercial developments, which has allowed us to use more robust and permanent materials in each home.

Kmart's list of 31 recalls

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.

Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.

The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?

A truck that decided to overtake a truck-and-trailer unit on a hill on SH1 south of Warkworth narrowly missed colliding with a bus on Monday afternoon. A woman can be heard in video footage of the dangerous manoeuvre saying: "They're going to do a head-on." The offending truck cut off the truck-and-trailer, causing the driver to break so hard the vehicle stalled, causing delays for those caught behind. There was a passing lane less than 400m after where the incident took place.
