Poor performance as usual, please make sure you have complaint forms at the counter, there were no complaint forms in the box so people can give feedback. Also make sure the sauna has the little red bucket filled with your solution to apply to the sauna rocks. It's always empty so I have to ask for it to be filled, this will also stop the people I see who apply there own.
Hi
the wonderful women in our Women's Support group are making art dolls in August. I hoped some of the crafters out there may have bits and pieces lying around that could be used to make hair. Textured / bobbly bits are especially great.
Please phone Sue on 5661601 or 027 4604795 if you … View moreHi

5. Small changes
It might sound obvious, but make sure to fix anything broken. Doors that don’t shut properly, holes in walls, peeling wallpaper and leaking taps are just some of the things that can turn off buyers and are relatively easy to fix.
Consider changing the kitchen and bathroom handles. This is an inexpensive and easy way to modernise these key rooms. Also, fix any leaking taps and oil creaky hinges.

4. Garden glory
One easy move which ramps up the visual appeal and saleability of a property is tackling the garden. Try to make sure the property appears low maintenance as this appeals to buyers.
But simple moves like mowing the lawns, weeding the garden, clearing up landscaping clutter, pruning trees, sweeping up leaves and clearing pathways make a huge difference.

3. Paint rejuvenation
Revitalising a property with a good paintjob is a sure way to boost its attractiveness while modernising it and adding value. Choose light, neutral colours and don’t forget to paint ceilings and cupboards, too.
Also, it pays to paint the front doorway and door if required as this will improve a buyer’s first impression. Re-staining decks is also a fairly simple move which can make a big difference to the overall appeal of a property.
Hi does anyone have kittens? My kids would love to have one. If anyone can assist that would be great.
