Have your power prices gone up?

Electric Kiwi

Households are being told to shop around for better power deals as some power companies lifted their prices in April. On the flip side, smaller companies like Electric Kiwi won't be raising power prices this year and are challenging the big power companies to do the same.

I am thinking of holding some evening healthy food cookery classes at The Abberley Park Hall. These would last approx 90 minutes and I could focus on anything people want or feel they need- how to make your diet healthier, incorporating more vegetables into your diet, ways to keep your body alkaline to ward off disease and the importance of probiotics and examples of fermenting foods would be a few examples. Would anyone be keen to come along or does anyone have any ideas of things they would like to learn? There would be a charge for each class but it wouldn't be much. A great chance to learn and make new friends at the same time. Please post any ideas or comments below. Thank you

Cat Rescue Chch -6 Month old Kitty Kat waiting for its furever home.

Remember Miss Betty Boop, my previous post.  She was a brindle 8 week old kitten that I had been fostering.  She has found her forever home. 

We are now looking for a forever home for Purdie (who came from the same colony) and due to the similar colouring, could be a half sister to Miss Betty Boop. 

Purdie is named as such due to the fact that she loves to cuddle and shows her appreciation via loud purrs.  Her foster mum loves her and wants her to go to a loving family.

Go look at the facebook link and lets see if we can find a furever home for Purdie and restore her faith in us humans.

Just because she is getting alittle older does not mean she will not make a loving companion!!!  Go the teenies.
