FREE 3 seater SOFA x 2 Ideal for bach
I have two sofas both 3 seaters that we have had outside under our veranda so got the occasional rain splash on them. They are indoor sofas really but we kept a blanket over them to collect the outdoor dust when windy. The brown one is a velvety material and in great condition APART from one arm that the cats scratched down to the wood unbeknown to us as it was under the blanket we had over it. If you have a throw over the sofa it wont show and it is still very serviceable. The other 3 seater is a blue/white floral pattern. No damage but some areas of grubby marks that should wash off with some hot soapy water but again throw a blanket over it and its good to go. Ideal for the bach. Available next week sometime.... tba.... collect. 8 kms NW of Hawarden spcooke@amuri.net Dont seem to be able to upload images properly but can e mail photos to anyone interested
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
