Untreated wood shavings, mulch, or sawdust

Melissa from Frankton

I'm doing some gardening and have run out of wood mulch as the place I usually get some is not open. Happy to take coarse stuff from landscaping companies, or bits from woodturning, sawmilling, etc. As long as it's untreated timber (not pink/green wood or stuff with paint/plastic in it), I'd be interested!

If you have some or know someone who does, let me know--also let me know any costs to deliver (would prefer this option as I don't have a ute/trailer, but can pick up).

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

The butcher with a taste for adventure

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Jonathan and Sarah Walker are a couple with a give-it-a-go attitude to life, whether it’s travelling the world in a Land Rover or starting a butchery business with no experience.

Nestled below Hakarimata Scenic Reserve just outside of Ngāruawāhia is Soggy Bottom Holding, the local butcher you’ll recognise from frosty mornings at the farmer’s markets.

‘Devastated and disappointed’ - former students hope it wasn’t one of their own

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Former students of Taupō Nui-a-Tia College say they’re “devastated” and “disappointed” after the alleged arson at their school which has left an entire block of classrooms, and a health centre destroyed by fire.

Emergency services were called to the school about 2.15pm on Sunday, when plumes of black smoke could be seen across town.
