• The Total Fire Ban has been lifted. All the Waikato region is now in Open Fire Season except for the Thames/Coromandel district which in in a Restricted Fire Season.

• The Open Fire Season now in place means that you can light fires in the open as long as they are safe and will not get out of control.

• However, Fire & Emergency NZ (Waikato) asks that you delay lighting non-essential fires until after we reach Level 2 of the current lockdown. This will avoid putting staff and volunteers at unnecessary risk of Covid-19 infection.

• If your fire will be large and may attract public attention with consequent 111 calls, please first inform the Fire Communication Centre ph. 09 486 7948 to reduce unnecessary Fire Brigade callouts.

• The Thames Coromandel District has been moved to a Restricted Fire Season, meaning that Fire Permits are required there before lighting outdoor fires.

• For more information, contact Paul Shaw, Principal Rural Fire Officer – Waikato Rural ph.: 027 284 8636 paul.shaw@fireandemergency.nz

chocolate cadbury Easter eggs

Dianne from Hamilton East

Just wondering did anyone notice that the Cadbury chocolate Easter eggs smelt and tasted different this year.?....Im a big fan of a couple of easter eggs and usually the smell alone is to die for, but this year they were, well for me anyway, very different.

Help I have a hole in my ceiling

Dianne from Hamilton East

Today while vacuuming, I discovered a hole about the size of at least an inch in diameter up in the ceiling next to my chimney......there is no other evidence of holes, anywhere else in that ceiling and it has never leaked or had any damp.

Today while vacuuming, I discovered a hole about the size of at least an inch in diameter up in the ceiling next to my chimney......there is no other evidence of holes, anywhere else in that ceiling and it has never leaked or had any damp.

Has anyone any ideas of what I need to do; my thoughts are that the gib would need to be replaced, at that spot, half a sheet would do it......would this be the way to go?

Any advice would be much appreciated

You might be using more wet wipes to keep your home clean, but it’s very important not to flush them afterwards.

They block up the pipes, which then need fixing immediately. When workers have to leave home to fix blocked pipes, they’re at risk of COVID-19. That puts everyone else in their … View more

They block up the pipes, which then need fixing immediately. When workers have to leave home to fix blocked pipes, they’re at risk of COVID-19. That puts everyone else in their bubble at risk as well.

Do your bit for workers and their whānau, and put your wet wipes in the bin.

Scam

Dianne from Hamilton East

Just be aware that the Inland Revenue fake emails have started the rounds again. Probably reckoning on people needing quick money fast atm. The bona fide Inland Revenue never asks you for account details, nor does it have a form that is in this email.
Best to not open it and just press delete.
