A heartfelt request

Linda from Northcote

`PLEASE please do NOT stockpile and bulk buy goods. There is absolutely no need to do this. At no time in the forseeable future is the food going to run out.

There is absolutely no need to do this. At no time in the forseeable future is the food going to run out. IF you need to self isolate or quarantine for whatever reason, it is possible to order goods online or via phone through Countdown and New World and have these things delivered to your door. Be mindful that panic buying (a) serves no actual purpose at all (b) is not necessary and (c) is depriving vulnerable people including the elderly of items they need right now, let alone in a time of crisis. Please use your common sense and ask first "do I need all of this now and, if so, why?" If the answer is No, then just shop as you normally would - whether in person, online or via phone.

Free rabbit

Howdy neighbours!

I've ended up having to rescue a rabbit yesterday from a rather complicated (and not great) situation. The owner has now asked that I try to find a home for him as she is in Northland and won't be able to travel down to collect him.

Howdy neighbours!

I've ended up having to rescue a rabbit yesterday from a rather complicated (and not great) situation. The owner has now asked that I try to find a home for him as she is in Northland and won't be able to travel down to collect him.

So I'm wondering if anyone would love a gorgeous 14 week old white male dwarf rabbit. I would keep him if our situation would allow but it's driving one of my dogs crazy and we don't have a suitable outside area.

It would be great isolation entertainment for kids :-) He is also apparently litterbox trained but suspect he may need to be refreshed on this.

My number is 021 847 886

Hello everyone ,
I hope you’re all safe and healthy.

I thought in these times of isolation and uncertainty with work and what not , we could use this time to get into some creative spaces within ourselves to produce some awesome projects as a collective .

If anyone has some ideas for creative challenges for us all to participate in then please don’t be shy (eg. 7 day drawing challenge, poetry, writing , dance, photography etc.) .
It can be as broad or as specific as you like .
Something you think would work well for everyone to take part in and have abit of fun with . ☺️

Let’s get creative and take this time to get into something new or get back into those things we wish we had more time to do. (Unintentional rhyme 😛)

Stay safe and if you’re feeling abit down or lonely and want a good ol yarn then please feel free to reach out to me , it can be hard to keep your head above water during these times and that’s totally understandable.
