FREE Miele vacuum cleaner - old but still works well :)

Amanda from Petone

I’ve had this for many years, just upgraded to a stick vacuum so this needs a new home.

It’s got varying suction levels, the max level is quite strong! I usually use 3rd from top. Has space for a HEPA filter (there’s not one in there at the moment), and uses bags which you can buy from … View more

Due to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, commemoration services for Anzac Day will look a little different this year. There will be a scaled-back dawn service to remember the conflicts of our past and present, and to honour those who served.

Public are welcome to attend, but please remember to follow COVID-19 guidance, and do not attend if you are feeling unwell.

There is also a pop-up poppy field on Andrews Avenue from 18-26 April, where the public are welcome to lay poppies and pay their respects.

There will be no civic service in 2022.

"Our beautiful endemic and endangered black-billed gull/tarāpuka (Chroicocephalus bulleri). Sometimes I've found them a little confusing to identify as in non-breeding plumage, black-billed gulls can have a two-coloured brownish and black bill and red legs, but they always have a longer, finer bill than a red-billed gull - that said there is also a little variation in the bill sizes. The two species sometimes hang out together as well to make it more confusing. Bird #57 in 2022."

Don't forget to turn your headlights on.

Headlights on when it's dark or visibility is poor! In this video you’ll (just) spot a couple of white vehicles in grey, miserable, rainy weather—with no lights on you can barely see them even just a few metres away.
