Hello! I have two small strawberry off cuts in pots. Potted a couple of weeks ago while still runners and detached 72hours ago. These strong wee plants are ready for planting with roots even showing out the bottom of the pot. $2 each or $5 for both.

My strawberry plant was an off cut about 10 years ago from a friend and has grown at both my previous Spreydon home and moved with us a year and a half ago to my new Hoon Hay home. It stays green in winter and survived past frosts well.

Dogs on hot pavements

Kate from Cashmere

Hi everyone
Please can you think about your dog's paws before taking them out for a walk in the hot sun. The pavement burns their paws. If you can't stand on it then they won't be able to. I am upset on a daily basis seeing people dragging their dogs along the footpath and seeing … View more
Hi everyone
Please can you think about your dog's paws before taking them out for a walk in the hot sun. The pavement burns their paws. If you can't stand on it then they won't be able to. I am upset on a daily basis seeing people dragging their dogs along the footpath and seeing the dogs trying to walk in the shade or in gardens to get off the hot pavement. Many of them are limping. Please rethink the time of day you take your dog out. Thanks.

Watch: Is this the coolest thing to do in NZ?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Hi neighbours,

What do you get when you combine go-carts with the luge, and race down the side of a ski mountain? It's called mountain carting; and it's easily the most fun Brook Sabin has ever had.

This cool ride is at Cardrona - the South Island ski resort. Although most Kiwis head there during the winter ski season, in the warmer months it's a summer playground. Click here to read all about it. Have you given this a go?

How much do flash jandals cost now?

Reporter Sunday Star Times

Jandals. The good old Kiwi flip flop. When the sun is blazing down, the rubber shoe can take you from the morning stroll to get a paper, the beach, and then on to a bar. But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've … View moreJandals. The good old Kiwi flip flop. When the sun is blazing down, the rubber shoe can take you from the morning stroll to get a paper, the beach, and then on to a bar. But how pricey are these items getting - what did you pay back in the day, and what's the most expensive one you've seen in the beach boutiques nowadays?
