are you like me, retired & too much time on your hands,wracking your brain for constructive use of this precious commodity ?
well i can thoroughly recommend this excercise in scroogonomy
once you have emptied your teapot & about to dispose of your used teabags try this
squeeze out excess moisture & place teabag on the windowsill for a day to dry out
once this is done get an old baked bean tin or other small container & put in dried teabag & add about a teaspoon of kerosene ( available from your supermarket or hardware store)
leave overnite to soak, take out regenerated teabag & put in a suitable storage container with a waterproof lid,this is for safety & to eliminate the kerosene odour
I have been using this method for the last 3 winters

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
