Plastic box of embroidery floss - free or pay what you want

Tanja from Mount Wellington

Good morning, neighbours - I have a Tupperware-type box full of embroidery cotton that I collected back when I used to do cross-stitch.

I haven't done any for something like 2 decades though, so it's really time for it to go to someone who'll use it.

I'd kind of like to get *some* money for it (there's a fair amount of cotton in there), but I care more about it going to someone who'll get some enjoyment and pleasure from using it.

So if you'd definitely like it but can't afford to pay anything, feel free to put your hand up. Or, if you'd like to make an offer, that's fine too.

Message me either way :-)

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
