Apple Watch
After a little bit of a health scare last September I decided I need to look after myself a bit better. And last week I finally found two fairly recent and affordable Apple Watches from a Pawn shop to keep tabs on our pulse, oxygen level, and activity.
Turns out my wife isn’t a watch person - still made her wear it for a day so we got a baseline record of her pulse range for the future. Anyway, if she’s not using it then no point in keeping it.
So if anyone is interested in my wife‘s Apple Watch 7 41mm GPS send me a message. It's in very good condition and I'm only selling it as I had got another one myself (and I AM a watch person). Has pretty much the same sensors as latest Series 9 that came out before Xmas except no sensor for body temperature. Will be reset to factory settings and I’m happy to help with the setup. Pickup in Green Bay (we are opposite Green Bay High School).

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
