WANTED Twin Tub Washing Machine in good working order
I have limited water in summer and a flow rate too slow for modern machines to activate. I therefore need to find an old fashioned twin tub washing machine. BUT.. I got one off Trade Me that works BUT whilst the washer is a good size the spin drier "hole" is small. I can get a queen sheet in the washer OK but not in the spinner. Does anhonehave a late model twin tub that has a decent capacity spinner? I bought a new Haier chinese made piece of c**p. The size of OK BUT the lint filter broke after a few uses, it wont ger spinning most of the time it harbours dirty stinking water that comes back into the washer even if you have emptied it out there is always some left. A good old F & P with the right size spinner capacity is all I need then I can have clean clothes that are not stretched out of shape by my current Chinese model that covers everything in link ! Can anyone help? WAs there a guy in Woodend that did old machines up? I am sure there was an article in the paper about him but that was a good while ago
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.1% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.2% No, I enjoy it

1.8% Other - I'll share below
Poll: 🪰 Should the city invest money into researching the new Bypass Plan, or should we prioritise fixing the existing infrastructure?
As reported in the Press, the debate over the Bromley odour continues. Recently, a Bypass Plan has been proposed as a potential solution - this involves pumping sewage into the sea. However, official technical, scientific, and environmental reports on this plan and how it may impact the Canterbury region aren't finished yet.
Before we get the final word from the consultants, we want to know what the community thinks about the allocation of rates and resources.
We want to know: Should the city invest money into researching the new Bypass Plan, or should we prioritise fixing and upgrading the existing infrastructure?
