Magpie Market Stall of the Month

Magpie Market

Hi everyone, we had a great Market on Saturday 5th May. The weather was lovely and the stalls looked great. It was lovely and buzzy - no doubt helped along by the great coffee from Heaven's Bakery caravan. So thanks to everyone who came along, enjoyed the atmosphere and bought goodies for themselves or others. This month our featured stall is Geranium Cottage where you can buy natural plant based products including hand wash, balm, floral water sprays, hand creams & essential oils as well as a range of hand crafted items including wreaths, willow hearts, flax flowers,
lavender bags, pot pourri and magnesium cream and calendula balm and oil. This is a really lovely stall, beautifully presented - smells wonderful too - and full of lovely products to pamper yourself or someone special with. Come along to our next market on 2nd June and sample some of what geranium Cottage has on offer.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

Cleaning a heat pump

Barbara from Raureka

Hi everyone. Can anyone recommend a reliable and reasonable company to clean our heat pump. We used it on cold for a couple of days and when turning it back to warm it has a smell. We get it serviced yearly but the firm we use is expensive.
