FREE Loose leaf tea

Katy from Linwood

Would anyone like this bag of Bell loose leaf tea, about 170g. I bought it to reduce our packaging waste but I'm not a fan of the flavour. Free to anyone that would use it, shame for it to go to waste.

C: What the average time for foundations to be laid and "set" before continuing to build is

If your foundations were type 2A AND/OR dewatered even better but any responses will be very helpful

Hi Everyone.


This is the first time we have had a collection at the Barrington Mall, so hope the lovely people of the surrounding area's will beable to support our charity in the following ways:-


1. We will have collection buckets so if people wish to donate money then they can.  If everyone donated a gold coin, it would be a good collection with monies to cover our very high vet bills.
2.  We will have cat food bins, so if you are shopping at Fresh Choice, you might want to pop in an extra item of kitten food, or kitty litter into your shop,  as opposed to donating monies, and come and put in the food bin.
3.  Come and talk to us about our fundraising ventures we are involved in ie making crafts for our stall, offering to help with our vegan baking for sale in our stall at the Vegan Expo on October 28th of this year, or you could ask us about 'Webfair'.
4. Just come and talk to our volunteers about what we do.  We are cat/ animal lovers and hence love talking about cats in general.


We will be situated (with a table) between the old Paperplus and the lovely ice cream place.


Hope to see you and if you could mention it to all your family and friends.

IRD is warning of a new scam that asking customers for credit card details. IRD has received a significant number of report about the email.

It is a very good copy of a legitimate IR email. It can be detected by the following:
- The From Field does not end in ird.govt.nz
- Hovering the cursor over the weblink does not point to an IRD.GOVT.NZ website.
- Do not click as these are not from IRD. We will never advise you that you are due a tax refund through email.

Anyone who receives an email from the IRD, or someone claiming to be the IRD should get in contact with them.

Below is an example of the scam email:
