Looking for free microwave for an old neighbour
I have an old neighbour in her mid 70s (and with health problems, eg she can only use one arm) on a very small pension. After Xmas I was shocked to hear that she was basically living on Chinese Noodles all the time - especially as I had just eaten a large portion of leftover ham from another neighbour (and felt quite guilty about that). Since then I'm looking after her a bit and started to bring round dinner and leftovers occasionally (I'm not exactly rich myself, but if the small guys don't help each other out …). The problem is that heating up leftovers is difficult for her with just one usable arm - so I'm looking for a free microwave for her. If anyone has one then I would appreciate if she could have it. Thanks. Markus
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
