Moving house soon, need to sell :)
Brigs & Stratton 2HP petrol Engine
Pull Start
Old but fantastic petrol powered reel lawnmower. Has had all services done as needed, very sharp blades. I have recently cleaned the air filter and I believe the oil has recently been changed too, the clutch that runs the blades has recently been replaced as well.
Runs on standard 91 petrol. Is self propelled and comes with a catcher.
Has a brake to stop the mower from rolling away.
Rust looking stuff you see on the petrol tank is just paint that has flaked off over time.
This lawnmower is over 50 years old and runs well, the idle may need a little adjustment as it sometimes cuts out when sitting idle.
Selling this due to the fact that it isn't suitable to mow the lawn we have and is difficult to store.

Price: $150

What's in a name?

Shannon Beynon Reporter from Christchurch Mail

A colleague just told me about a friend of his, who has two sets of twins - no mean feat! The thing that stuck out for me, though, were their names: Bernie and Dorothy, and Betty and Delilah. We figured they'd been named after family members, or Mum has a love for old-fashioned names.

The thing that stuck out for me, though, were their names: Bernie and Dorothy, and Betty and Delilah. We figured they'd been named after family members, or Mum has a love for old-fashioned names. But it got me to thinking - do you have an unusual name? Where did it come from? Has it been a blessing or a curse? My brother (Kylee) tried to buy my name off me when we were teenagers, but he's now settled into his moniker. Of course, it gets a little confusing sometimes, with his partner named Kylie...
