Gorgeous Vintage Wooden Towel Rack

Markus from Green Bay

Whether you are one of the lucky ones living in an authentic 1920s villa with hardwood floors and want that authentic ambience (and I really hope it gets back to where it should be), or want to smarten up your guest room or a bath room for AirBnB - you need the right accessories.

Well, here is your chance to get a gorgeous wooden towel rack for it - so much more stylish than what you get nowadays..

I didn’t even clean it beyond a slight wipe (I know better than to “clean” items to death) but I can tell you that the pictures don’t really do it justice - you kind of expect Poirot to come round the corner at any moment now …

The measurements are:

78 cm (wide) x 90 cm (high) x 17 cm (deep) / 33 cm (feet) with 5 rungs for hanging towels

Pickup please in Green Bay (opposite Green Bay High School) - I don’t want to send it for several reasons:

* cost
* danger of damage
* inconvenience of finding a suitable box and packaging material
* environmental considerations (if possible I prefer to sell local)

Though if you are outside Auckland then maybe a friend of yours in Auckland can do the pickup? Just make sure it’s a good friend or he might keep it … ;-)

As I work from home it can be picked up pretty much any time (unless I have a video conference).

Price: $99

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
