A couple of useful hints...
Happy Monday Neighbours 😊
Many of us rely on tank water and summer is a testing time to ration our supply between useful rainfalls. While we don’t need to use our dehumidifiers so much in the warmer months, when you do and it's time to empty the dehumidifiers tank, tip the water into your washing machine, every little bit of conserved water helps. We also use our dehumidifier water on our house plants without any adverse effects.
Another little tip for when we wear our masks during Covid, if like us your glasses fog up when you have your mask on, clean the lenses with a little shaving foam and remove with a soft cloth, it works 😊
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
