welcome (& help) new neighbour
kia ora lovely neighbours
as some of you know, I love the marketplace on here - (you know people are LOCAL, easy to collect) - and meet such lovely neighbours in the process.
I did not click on the 'ad' for "free house hold stuff" - as I though were GIVING away stuff - and little I need right now.
oh when I did - a very easy mistake to make - ASKING for - not giving away
Amanda & her 2 sons (12 & 16) have just moved here, out west, from Wellington - and looking for a helping hand
so generous neighbours - is there anything surplus to your requirement that you can help Amanda with?
"Hi me an my two sons have just relocated to Glen Eden from Wellington an are looking for few things for our house kitchen table an chairs pots an pans an draws cabinets etc thank you"
"16 and 12 and we are needing dinning table and chairs vacuum kitchen stuff and draws for boys rooms"
I think I have a spare large frying pan - but can't help with the rest....
if you can't help, all good - just if you don't ask, you don't get - (so see Amanda's ad - in Marketplace - under "free house hold stuff" - for her contact info)
peace & love - arohanui
