Pick up only and has to be picked up by Saturday 4th Dec.

FREE trampoline for a good home. A bit of rust due to weather and 3 children using it.

From shaking cream for thirty minutes to achieve a rich butter, to proving the pastry for a minimum two hours to attain the ideal puff and flake. A very technical yet rewarding few days.
Your Christmas can be even more beautiful with my hand made natural wreaths which I made from bits and bobs I picked up on my walks around Point Chevalier and surrounding area.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced a $37 million recovery fund for Auckland businesses this morning, which will include 100,000 free vouchers to visit Auckland Council facilities, attractions, and venues.
The goal is to encourage Aucklanders to "rediscover the best of local businesses and visitor attractions" by visiting places like the zoo and museums, or attend summer events organised by community and cultural groups.
What business or attraction would you spend your voucher on this summer? Share your thoughts below and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comment featured in the conversations section of the Western Leader.
In good condition, plays 5 cd, 2 cassettes, am/fm radio, 2 stereo speakers. no remote

Thanks team for explain in a little more detail the traffic light system. I watched Jacinda yesterday at 4 pm and didn't hear her mention or anything on the news about the Auckland border still being closed until January 17th. Where did you get this information from, I believe that the borders will be reopened from Dec 3rd when the Traffic Light System comes into force. Would be interested to know your source. Many thanks
