Computer Desk and Accessories, and TV for sale
As people will know on Neighbourly, my husband passed away in August, and now I no longer have need for an extra computer desk, so I would like to sell this desk, together with an AOC Monitor, a set of Speakers, and a typist chair, for $90 (see photo attached). As a Tower computer was being used with this desk, my husband made a slot at the side of the desk for the Tower to stand in. He also extended the end of the desk so that a telephone and cradle could stand there. The monitor has hardly ever been used, because it was a spare computer I had set up in case my husband wanted to look for something on the internet, which wasn't very often.
The TV I would like to sell is my husband's portable 19 inch TV, which he bought from new but, only took it out with him about three times, with his video camera, when he wanted to watch what he was videoing. It would be ideal for a caravan or motor home. It cost him $284 but I would accept $80, if anyone is interested. I haven't used it myself, so any interested parties are welcome to come along and try it out if they wish. Perhaps you could message me if you are interested.
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
