Mowing person wanted
Yesterday I had to sadly say goodbye to my lawn mowing lady Sharon, other commitments forced her to leave after 2 years.
So now I need a new person.
Lawns mowed generally every 2-3 weeks in late spring, summer and early autumn but every 3-4 weeks rest of year.
Clippings don't need to be taken away.
Reasonable cost please. Sharon received $15 for each mow.
Must be reliable, friendly, and trustworthy.
Extra money if also able to tend to front garden and back concrete area every so often when necessary ie pull out weeds etc.
Next mow due late September.
Please contact me if interested.
Many thanks.
Karen
PS I'm in Shannon place.
PSS I don't own a mower, sold mine many years ago after having asthma attack whilst mowing.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?
The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.
One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
