Masport Lawnmower - Free to a Good Home
Masport 460 lawnmower. With catcher. Made in NZ. I haven't been able to start it, so would suggest most likely suitable for parts (but, I'm not a mechanic, so perhaps it can be revived?). Belonged to a neighbour, so unfortunately I cannot tell you much about its history, or why it is no longer running. As far as I'm aware until recently it has only been used to mow a small lawn, has been stored indoors and, judging by the attached tape, appears to have been purchased from Mitre10. If you'd like it, please send me a private message.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
