Tart Oranges - FREE

Wendy from Pukete

We have a tree full of oranges if anyone is interested in some, but be warned they are quite tart! I have tried eating one's that have fallen on the ground, figuring that they must be ripe, and they are not that pleasant. Haha.

I have tried eating one's that have fallen on the ground, figuring that they must be ripe, and they are not that pleasant. Haha. FIL thinks it is possibly an old fashioned "breed" of orange? I have no idea, but they are just going to waste.

Fisher Price Little People Tower - FREE

Wendy from Pukete

My kids have had good use of this, and its now ready for a new home. The only piece missing as far as I'm aware, is a small orange attachment ramp at the bottom of the big red ramp, which you could angle to make the cars fly through the air. Still works well without it. As far as I know the … View moreMy kids have had good use of this, and its now ready for a new home. The only piece missing as far as I'm aware, is a small orange attachment ramp at the bottom of the big red ramp, which you could angle to make the cars fly through the air. Still works well without it. As far as I know the sound still works, but needs batteries replacing. Comes with 2 cars.

Blackboard on one side. Other side has a whiteboard. Not been used much, just collecting dust.
Not sure why it looks red in the photo. I suspect its a reflection of what I was wearing at the time, as its definitely black.

Has been outside so the paint is abit rusty now. I used it for a canary, but would be suitable for any similar small bird such as finches. Not really suitable for a parrot type because there's not much room to climb. There is a board in the bottom that can be removed as I also used it as a travel cage for a rabbit. You will need to replace food and water containers as they broke.

Vandals damage Ngaruawahia cemetery

Waikato District Council and the Police have condemned shameful acts of vandalism carried out at a Ngaruawahia cemetery.

Cars have ripped up the turf at Jackson St Cemetery after drivers have raced around the cemetery on at least three occasions since 19 June.

A neighbouring resident has reported hoons to the police and the Council has already spent $1,600 of ratepayer money to reinstate turf.

The latest incident happened last week.

The offenders clearly have no respect, and to do this sort of thing in the grounds of a cemetery is shameful.

They could have easily broken or destroyed headstones and this type of behaviour is just not acceptable.

A description of cars involved has been given to the Ngaruawahia Police.

If police apprehend any driver causing such damage in the future they will be charged accordingly, with wilful damage which carries a $2000 fine or three months imprisonment.
