Beds4U Avondale

But have you ever thought what happens to the old mattress when you leave it … View moreMattresses usually last 8-10 years before they need to be replaced.

But have you ever thought what happens to the old mattress when you leave it on the curb? The size and construction of the mattress create a major problem for the authorities.

Kia ora neighbours, Owha's back! Auckland's resident leopard seal took a suspected bullet to the face a few weeks back, which had a lot of people worried.

Luckily it looks like she's pulled through, if a video of her frolicking in Westhaven Marina is anything to go by (click the link to view).

Thanks to Crispin Middleton from Seacology NZ for the video - he watched her playing for 20 minutes on Wednesday morning and said she looked happy and well.

Strawberry Globbler Help

Mubashir Neighbourly Lead from Mount Roskill

Something creepy has been gobbling up my strawberries when I leave them to ripen. What could it be? I have lavishly sprinkled slug and snail bait around but no stopping. There is enough grains for the birds to feed from as well 🤔. I think whoever that is, is more deserving than me as per nature … View moreSomething creepy has been gobbling up my strawberries when I leave them to ripen. What could it be?

Imagine receiving this pamphlet in your letterbox. Would you be compelled to donate?

In 1923 this was sent out to Auckland's citizens, requesting help to raise the remaining £50,000 of the total £200,000 which was needed to build the new Auckland War Memorial Museum. It included a call to donate, initial drawings of the planned Museum and a list of early donors.

The people of Auckland came through and all the funds were raised! The new Auckland Museum was opened on 28 November 1929.

We’re celebrating 90 years of Auckland Museum in Auckland Domain. Read more about the origins of the building here.
