AS NEW CONDITION – ORIGINAL RETAIL PRICE $110

Has only been out of the box and used for the last 4 weeks (I only needed this for a short time while my dryer was set up in a temporary space). I’ve thoroughly cleaned what little dust had accumulated – you won’t even notice the kit had been unpacked. All original parts and accessories are included and are in perfect working condition. Very easy to install in different configurations.

This complete DIY kit externally vents your dryer for maximum efficiency & comfort. Will fit most dryers with rear exhaust & will eliminate hot, moist, lint laden air from your laundry, thus reducing the need for a de-humidifier. Helps to prevent mildew on walls & ceilings. Specially designed flat profile of rear vent diverter allows for use on wall mounted dryers. Permanent through the wall exhaust system means no need to leave doors or windows open.

Decreases drying time & provides cleaner, healthier air in your laundry as moist air is not recirculated. The aluminium duct comes in a flexible 100mm diameter, 2.4m length.

Tired of tossing and turning at night and waking up exhausted?
Here are some tips and suggestions involving light exercises to help you achieve a better night's sleep.

Walking
A good walk outside might be the solution to your sleep deprivation. Walking at any pace is a nice method to unwind after a long day. The combined advantages of exercise and exposure to nature enhance restfulness.

Flexibility training
Aches and pain may cause problems on a good night's sleep. If your body hurts and you can't sleep, consider including yoga exercises into your night regimen. Stretching at night can mobilise any stiff joints and relax any stiff muscles. Using a latex mattress might also be beneficial depending on one's comfort.

Strength training
Some believe that undertaking intensive activities at night, such as weightlifting, affects sleep, yet studies show otherwise. Keep in mind that you don't have to go overboard during a nighttime strength training workout. If you're worried about having difficulties sleeping, do a shorter or less intensive strength training exercise before bed.

Kindly let us know by commenting if you found these suggestions beneficial in your everyday routines.

One more week before Denis Bourke Paintings & Bobbie Gray "Insignifican Other" exhibitions come down on next Wednesday 27 April!

"Denis Bourke Paintings" covers areas of interest that have been at work concurrently over several decades in Denis Bourke’s long-standing practice. Bourke has travelled widely across Aotearoa New Zealand, and is a longtime illustrator and recorder of land features.

Bobbie Gray's "Insignificant Other" brings everyday life into art through magnifying borer ‘galleries’ found in the native timber floors of the artist’s home. The works read as abstract paintings, yet the mark making delves beneath the surface, revealing physical depth. The lines left are evidence of life lived, in parallel with our own.

You can also view the works online at www.depotartspacegallery.com...

This week our Advanced cookery students designed a three-course menu that includes a fish dish, involving the filleting of a fish, freshly made pasta - ribbon or ravioli, plus dessert - all with a Mediterranean theme.
This is one of our most popular projects as the students must design a three-course menu, cost it in a spreadsheet to meet a specific budget, create a menu card and timeplan to help them execute the tasks. They must serve the menu to a guest who arrives at 12.30. Everything is done on the day. The students also get to sit with their guest to savour and enjoy their creations.

Along with our cookery students, the Food & Beverage, Level 4 students showcased excellent wine and food service to the guests.

Some of the dishes prepared were -
- Pan seared fish with salsa and mesclun salad
- Fettuccine Al Burro with handmade pasta
- Semolina cake soaked in orange blossom syrup, rosewater sorbet, pistachio crumb & candied orange peel
