I'm not so confident with that repair and I'd rather just buy a new fridge than shell out to have someone repair it, so now the fridge needs a new home, hopefully to someone who can use it for parts (seriously, those door seals have been on only a week- they can't be wasted!) or who wants to replace the temperature control panel and net themselves a great fridge. 1690mm high X 650mm deep X 640mm wide. Currently it is still working but the freezer compartment is getting frosty and the fridge temp is fluctuating, so it will need a repair or be used for parts. I've put it on TradeMe, but thought I'd post here too. Please check it out if you're interested:

Hi there,
I have a bit of a random request.
I was hoping someone may have an old ships wheel and/or a old life ring that I could please borrow just for 1 day (22nd Feb) . I have been hunting op shops and trade me etc with no luck. It is just to be used as decoration at my sons birthday party, so doesn't need to be in great condition, and I can pick up and drop back after the party.
Thanks so much in advance,
Jo McDermott

Hi all,
My partner, myself, and a very good friend of ours are currently searching for a new rental to call home. Our lease for our current property will be ending this Saturday 15th, so we are available now.

My partner, myself, and a very good friend of ours are currently searching for a new rental to call home. Our lease for our current property will be ending this Saturday 15th, so we are available now.
Unfortunately, we have been to many viewings and have found it very difficult to find somewhere that fits what we are looking for, or we find that right before we attend a viewing, we are told it is cancelled and the property has been applied for.
There are three of us, and our two dogs.
Myself and our friend both work in the animal industry and have done for a number of years.
My partner works in the fishing industry in a professional office environment.
If anyone could help us to find a home, we would be extremely grateful.
Our cat seems lost as hasn’t appeared home since yesterday (usually it is around the house all day). Tabby female, has chip with our address.
If anyone have seen her recently near Wyoming Avenue in Murrays Bay - please let us know.
