Need a Pet Friendly Room to Rent
Hi Everyone. I’m in need of a pet friendly room to rent. So if anyone wants a flatmate, please contact me. I’m a 52 year-old single male, non-smoker. I’m very neat & tidy. I’m also an ex Police Officer from South Africa.
I do have two pets, a young male cat & a Cockatiel bird in a cage that I’d like to bring with me to the new place.
Please contact me if you have a room available.
Chrstmas light show
Hi everyone.
I have put my Xmas lights up and am currently doing the final testing.
This is an animated show set to music, so drive by viewing is not the best.
There are speakers out so you will be able to hear the music that goes with the lights.
As last year, I will have my shows running from 1st of December until 31st of Dec inclusive.
As I have neighbours, Please respect them and their properties.
Show times will be,
Sunday to Thursday 9pm to 10pm.
Friday and Saturday 9pm to 10:30pm.
Last but not least the address.
28 Harrington Rd
Henderson.
