Huge 'moving to Oz' garage sale Sat 4 May
PICS added! Sales start 7.30am (no earlier!) at 16 Carew St, Nawton, Hamilton. We’re moving to Australia and can’t fit everything in the container, so out it goes at a garage sale... Have added some pics - there will be more stuff again but this shows a chunk of it.
• Furniture items, including desks, chests of drawers, chairs, shelving units, bookcases, mirrors, tables, bedsides and sundry bits and bobs...
• Outdoor furniture/storage, potted plants.
• Large Kathmandu tent.
• Tools, garage contents and paint.
• Cabling and tech bits.
• Lawn mower, chainsaw, chilly bins.
• PLUS: lots of toys (including a whole Nerf arsenal!), CDs, books, some kitchen gear and ornaments, suitcases, knick-knacks and good-quality clothes and shoes.
Come nab yourself some cool stuff. We also have a beautiful rimu roll-top desk for sale, as well as an exceptional trailer (set up for taking bikes but also great as an all-purpose trailer): please PM me if interested and I’ll scoot you the Trade Me links. Any questions please ask - but please note we won't be selling garage sale items prior to the day.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
