Canterbury District Health Board axes oft-slated potholed and puddled car park

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

A much-slated car park that's part of a park-and-ride service to Christchurch Hospital will close and be replaced by a council parking building.

Carpet vinyl layers

Thomas from Spreydon

Hi guys I'm doing a bit of diy flooring which has worked out great but not so confident putting in a transition strip from the vinyl to the carpet. Is there any one or know of any one looking for a little cash job to put one in for me? The strip is about 3m and has a 45degree angle corner.
