Myself and Mike (the other housemate) are looking for someone who wants a home to live in and is reliable and friendly.
The house is very large with a good balance of private/social space. We also have a spare bedroom for weekend or overnight visitors, a sunny back porch, big garden and space to store a bike in the garage. Two outdoor parks available on first come basis and plenty of on street parking.
We also have two shy, but very lovely and perfectly house-trained cats.

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)
