small wooden windows or wooden doors

Georgina from Karamu - Waipatu

We are building a tree hut (or palace as our granddaughter says) and would love to buy at a great price or be given some small wooden windows or wooden doors from cupboards or an actual door that we could cut up (but not MDF) that could be made into shutters. They do not have to be in perfect … View moreWe are building a tree hut (or palace as our granddaughter says) and would love to buy at a great price or be given some small wooden windows or wooden doors from cupboards or an actual door that we could cut up (but not MDF) that could be made into shutters. They do not have to be in perfect condition as we can fix them up to suit. Price given is just so we can place this request so happy to discuss. Project to be continued over the Christmas holidays so no rush if you are renovating but do not quite have the windows or doors out yet. Looking forward to hearing from you 0211222580

Poll: Should dogs be allowed in cafes?

Neighbourly.co.nz

Dogs lolling beneath cafe tables while their owners sip lattes or glasses of pinot would have been unthinkable 30 years ago.

Now it is just the way Kiwis roll, with a raft of dog-friendly dining options available throughout the country. What do you think? Should dogs be allowed in cafes?

Fibre sales people

Rosie from Parkvale

At 8pm last night (Sunday) when it was almost dark, I had a knock at my back door from another fibre salesman.

I was taken aback at the timing but I was told I needed to sign up as the house in front of me had signed up and they (not sure who they are) needed to install it in my house at the same time.
I am totally sick and tired of phone calls, mail, e-mail and door knocks re fibre. I cannot see the purpose of it in my case as only use broadband for e-mails and news feed and use well less than 20 gig a month and mostly use the internet via my cell phone. We still use the landline a lot.

Apparently I will not be able to sell my house in the future if it doesn't have fibre and I will be the only one in the street without it. And the Govt is going to make me have it within 3 years whether I like it or not. I feel pressured (bullied) over fibre and don't see why I should be made to have something that I don't want. So far the best offer I have had if I agree to it is that my monthly phone bills will reduce by $5. In some quotes it will go up.
I have decided not to have it at this stage and I just wish that my decision would be respected and that all the fibre sales people would leave me alone. Is there anywhere that I can register that I want to be fibre-free and that I won't harassed any more over this issue?

Come along on Thursday to one of the two sessions of family fun! It's designed mainly for primary school aged children, with plenty of fun for preschoolers also. Throw soft toys in the bucket, race hotwheels, pop balloons with darts and throw wet sponges at the superhero. Have a bite to eat, but leave time to redeem your reward tickets for a prize before the disco starts. Call into the church office for a colouring sheet beforehand if your child would like to enter that competition, and there's also prizes for costumes (nothing scary though, thanks!) More info on the flier.
