Large contemporary dark stained wooden coffee table has served us well, but sadly doesn't suit our new house.

Nicely hidden drawers slide smoothly out of each side on quality runners, but just look part of the table when closed to create a sleek, minimal look.

In excellent working order.

A bit of wear and tear to the finish, scratches and dings - nothing too deep though. Could do with a buff up.

Awesome cheap coffee table, or great for a kids/toy room. Perfect height for kids to play at.

Approx measurements 1000mm x 1000mm x 310 high.

Price: $100

Fireworks are a ton of fun but carry real risks that need to be taken seriously. If you plan on lighting some here's some tips to keep everyone in your community safe and happy.

❌ 1. Never light fireworks in dry or windy conditions.

🔥 2. Only use fireworks in wide open areas, away from flammable items such as trees, grasses, gas tanks, and wood.

💦 3. Keep a bucket of water or hose nearby.

👧 4. Children should never light fireworks themselves and need to be supervised closely at all times.

🧰 5. Keep all unlit fireworks in a secure bag or container away from any source of fire until they are ready to be used.

📞 6. Be considerate and let neighbours know if you're planning to set off fireworks. Aim to finish at a reasonable time.

🐱 7. Keep pets comfortable and secure inside. The loud booms and flashing lights can easily scare them off.

🐮 8. Avoid lighting off fireworks around farm animals and be aware of any newborns or elderly neighbours who may also be affected. If possible, change locations to somewhere that minimises any disturbances.

🌿 9. Be a tidy Kiwi and let's work together to keep New Zealand beautiful! Clean up any any rubbish and leave your spot better than you found it.

The fossil-rich Foulden Maar volcanic crater in Otago could be returned to public ownership and saved from mining.

The Dunedin City Council wants to buy the land, which has a permit for mining and is set to be sold after the collapse of mining company Plaman Resources Ltd.

Dunedin mayor Aaron Hawkins says Foulden Maar is rich in biodiversity, essential for conservation and will allow scientists to better understand the history of life, southern hemisphere biogeography and climate change.
