With overseas tourists set to return to NZ shortly, we're looking at doing a light-hearted piece on the odd questions Kiwis have been asked about NZ. You may have seen the post doing the rounds on social media at the moment asking whether English is spoken here and suggesting NZ is a state of Australia (see below). Have you ever been asked anything surprising about NZ? Feel free to message me or comment below. Please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in the article. Thanks very much for your help and happy travels.

Glen Eden Pick Up only, or delivery is available for $20.00 per load within a 5km radius of Glen Eden (minimum order for delivery is 10 bags -please text 0204 192-9415 for delivery order request).
Pick-up venue:
Sundays (as advised), corner of Willowbrook Place and Kaurilands Rd, Glen Eden, just down from the entrance to Glen Intermediate School, 23 Kaurilands Rd, Glen Eden, between 1 pm - 2 pm (please look for the blue sign-written car, grey-covered silver trailer, and $5 Firewood lawn signs).
Text Orders:
Phone 0204 192-9415 to pre-order your firewood with your name, email address, and # of bags required on the day (deadline for placing orders is Friday 5 pm of the pick-up week, so we have time to bag the wood for the Sunday pick up). We will send you a confirmation text to confirm your order.
Placing an order is really important - we sold out in 11 minutes at the last pick-up.
Get an (Approx.) 10-12 kg bag of dry, factory off-cut (sawn to size for use in wood-burners), untreated firewood for just $5 a bag.
This firewood is priced at around half the cost of similar-sized firewood bags.
Cash payment only - no EFTPOS, and no change given, so please bring exact money for order pick-up.
NB: We recommend de-bagging the wood after pick up, and letting the wood air out in a covered area at home.
Please see the following link for tips on increasing the burn time and heat efficiency of your wood burner:
