Reason for my advising this very personal matter is - don't rely on your first results and check it all out as there is No Way that the lab would be able to test something they have not received.

Looking for lower case letter "a"

Lani from Foxton Beach

Howdy neighbours. Am hoping someone out there might have a lower case letter "a" that we could buy. Ideally a castiron one or even a kids plastic magnet one that we could spray paint and put on a door. It needs to have depth, so not a flat one. Thank you in advance.

We are looking for a friendly diesel mechanic who would be happy to give us some suggestions on what they think may be wrong with our Toyota diesel van. Sometimes it starts and then just stops and other times it won't start at all. If we could get some ideas on what may be wrong we can then decide if it is worth spending the money to fix it. Anyone who would be happy to have a friendly chat and give us their thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks very much. 😊

are you using the long weekend to tackle that long-over due reno? Or do you have a project you'd love to do in your home or garden but don't know where to start?

The experts at Resene are offering to help answer all your painting and decorating questions. Whether it's how to choose the right type of paint to cover a stain, how to go about planning a mural, or how long you really need to spend on sanding down that woodwork, they're happy to help.
