I have way too many boxes.
Moving? Spring (Summer, haha) cleaning? Reorganising? Just love boxes? I am a dialysis patient and every month I get a delivery of supplies. I am drowing in my boxes of a range of sizes. Most of them are fluid boxes, they come with 12 or 10.5L of fluid in them (which probably gives a good idea of the volume of the box) so they are very strong. These are ideal for books (anyone who has tried to move a bunch of books knows that you need strong boxes for such dense weight) but can be for anything. I also have some larger boxes that my tubes and syringes and the like come in. Anyone who wants some is welcome to contact me and come get some. First in first served. =)
Eventually I will not be able to fit these boxes in my garage (I have recently just moved myself) and then I will start recycling them. If you miss out then just ask again after the 7th of Feb. I will have more by then, haha.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

Mitre 10 Park Hawke's Bay survey
A short Mitre 10 Park Hawke's Bay survey is open for people who don’t currently use the park. Your input, added to info from park users, will help shape a new master plan being prepared by the sports park management team that will (amongst other things) make the park more welcoming, accessible, and inclusive for all. Let them know what you think!
Topics include:
🏀 Awareness: Are you aware of the activities offered?
🏉 Perception: Do you feel the park is for everyone?
🏏 Access: Are there barriers keeping you from visiting?
🗓️ Survey closes 5pm, Sunday 1 December, 2024.
