Free Retro Pink Toilet!
This has just been removed. The cistern needs attention: most of the time it works fine, but occasionally you need to jiggle the inlet valve to get it to fill, probably an easy fix for someone who knows what they are doing, we don't. The seat is a marked from over zealous cleaning but apart from that it flushes and works well. Includes overflow pipe as pictured. Right hand lower inlet. Has been thoroughly cleaned with disinfectant just needs Jiffing. Pick up in Sylvan Rd, Parkvale.

Thanks.

New World Havelock North car park
Sitting in my work van, in the new New World carpark and I’ve been getting dirty looks. I get it. My van is halfway into the driving area. Literally. If you look, even from a distance, you’ll see my back end is almost hard against the fence, with my towball around the corner of the fence.
My work van is over 6m long and the car parks are only about 4.5m. The only spaces I can park out of the way are the nearest and the furthest corners from the door. And that still means parking across another carpark. Today, both those parks were taken.
Now, before you point out that I shouldn’t bring such a big vehicle to the supermarket, 1) why not? Everyone needs to shop; and 2) I drive a retirement village resident passenger van. And they have as much right to shop as anyone.
Okay, so park in the mobility parks. Nope. I don’t have a Mobility decal or placard. And, those parks are the same length as all the others.
So, if you want to get me to stop blocking the way, do the supermarket survey on your receipts and ask for one way driving around the carpark (clockwise is the most logical and safest) and oversized parks. Almost every other supermarket has them. Vehicles are getting bigger, parks aren’t.
