Winter isn’t usually associated with pottering about in the garden. However, it’s possible to grow, harvest, and share a bustling winter crop.

As we have celebrated Matariki and the beginning of the Māori New Year, for winter gardeners it’s the right time to cultivate crops that thrive in cooler temperatures and to prepare the soil for future planting.

Look under your roller

When was the last time you did a basic visual inspection of your car/truck/ute etc?

When was the last time you did a basic visual inspection of your car/truck/ute etc?

It’s a good idea to do it regularly. Why?

Driving to Napier and back today I saw so many vehicles with undercarriages that were dragging detritus. Branches, a tennis racket (at least it looked like what was left of one) and stone guards.

It’s quite easy to lose your stone guard, if you are too low or go too fast over a speed bump, raised curb, pothole or other uneven surface. Not to mention the damage you can donor your exhaust pipe or sump.

And if you catch thick branches they can do damage as well. Let alone a tennis racket.

Give your under carriage a look. See what is there and what’s not supposed to be. Especially in wet and windy weather.

We did a photo shoot with them and I've been paying it off, it turns out I've overpaid them by quite a bit. Site is empty with a for lease sign and contact numbers for both HB and wlg are disconnected. I would have thought that they would have contacted customers especially as this was a special magical fairy photoshoot. I'm beyond pissed off about this. My next thought is paying the directors a personal visit to their address listed on the company's register website.
