Made in Germany e-bike bought from Evo Bikes in 2019 at $1498. It will also come with a service plan valid until Nov 2022. Designed for fast commute i.e. a road bike not a mountain bike. Frame is too big for me (I'm 5"3) and especially after an accident with it I've just left it in the lounge like a display really. The part that fixate the saddle height is broken but an easy fix. Selling as it is. Can come and view after 6pm Mon-Fri this week. Weekend I'll be busy moving but can arrange time :) A bargain not to be missed!

Price: $500

Old news? Mortgages and vaccines top 1960s paper found hidden in wall

A 59-year-old newspaper found inside a house’s wall cavity shows Aucklanders in the 1960s were preoccupied with house prices and pandemics – much as they are today.

Mike and Julie Ann Sewell have been renovating their home in Torbay, on the North Shore, for the past two months.

Contractor Tyrin Perenara found the copy of the North Shore Advertiser, from November 14, 1962, in a wall cavity in the lounge.

It appeared it had been placed in the wall as a time capsule, as written on the front page was: “Ted Peters and Roger Broomfield put this here”.

Julie Ann Sewell said that they had found the newspaper “quite humorous”, especially the old advertisements.

“The prices in those days were really cheap compared to these days.”


According to an advert for Cross’ Supermarket, a can of Oak Spaghetti cost about 1 shilling and six pence – about 15 cents. Today, it sells for about $1.29 at Pakn’Save.

Much like 2021, there was a focus on mass vaccination in 1962, but for polio instead of coronavirus.

But unlike 2021, houses on the North Shore were “easily financed”, according to an advert by PTY Industries, which sold “architect designed homes” for mortgages of less than £3 per week.

North Shore's only decile one school reopens after $19.5m rebuild

Kia ora neighbours. The only decile one school on the North Shore has reopened after a $19.5 million rebuild.

Onepoto Primary in Northcote was given $19.5 million for a total rebuild in May 2018, due to the poor and neglected condition of its classrooms – which included leaks.

The rebuild also increased the school’s capacity to around 385 students in anticipation of Kāinga Ora’s Northcote Development of 1600 terraced homes, including a third each of state, KiwiBuild and open market homes.

Principal of three years Danielle Latoa-Levi said the school was in crisis prior to the rebuild and there had been doubt the school would reopen at all.

Now, the school has four modern teaching “studios” – equal to 16 classrooms and the roll is expected to reach 80 students next week.

Kiwis deserve better, which is why we’re fighting for power affordability for all of us. But we can’t do it alone.

Join us in the Revolt to bring power prices down, by signing the petition to demand that the Government reforms NZ’s broken electricity market. #Powergate ✊🏾 ✊🏿 ✊🏼 ✊🏽
