Free curtains, 2 pairs

Dianne from Hillcrest

We have two pairs of curtains to give away. They are old, brown with a design as shown in pic. Sun damaged, faded, have been washed and left with black marks on backing. They might be useful for someone who can repurpose the fabric, or use them for a caravan, bach, or flat. Or for someone in need of basic window coverings that will provide some dark and warmth. We are not claiming good condition at all, hence they are free :)

Please arrange pick up this week before we head to the dump.

Measurements approx:
- one pair was from a ranchslider door and window - 2300 track width.
- one shorter pair was from a rectangular window in bedroom - 2050 track width.
Curtain hooks included.

Txt 021496760 to arrange pick up.

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
