Classic dining table and six chairs
This lovingly cared-for, reproduction round Victorian Pedestal Dining Table and six mahogany, balloon back, dining chairs were crafted in Christchurch. A highly prized wedding present, in the late 1970s, from my parents. Characteristic of this romantic period in British design history, this setting works perfectly to create that classic dining room charm and or fit perfectly into an eclectic modern setting. Featuring beautifully carved detailing, solid wood, and turned pedestal with elegantly sculptured legs that curve down to the exquisite brass footings. The recently, refurbished chairs seats with tasteful, velvet upholstered are stylish and comfortable. All in good-excellent condition. The separate tabletop and base make for easy transport, delivery, and assembling. Owners are downsizing and moving to be with our family overseas. Available to view in Cashmere. Can provide transport for a local buyer.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
Poll: Do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? ☔⚠️
