Hi. Does anyone else in Foster Street or surrounding area have foul tasting water? Yesterday it was a murky mustard colour and today although it is clear it tastes of dirt and has bits floating in it. Have been told by city care that it is because of a high dose of chlorine- I've never known … View moreHi. Does anyone else in Foster Street or surrounding area have foul tasting water?

Hutt City Council wants to learn more about why people do or do not recycle, and whether council can do more to support recycling.
A survey was held at Queensgate Mall a few weeks ago and was so successful we want to hear from more people about what you like/dislike about recycling.

As we head in to winter, check out these 5 top tips for cutting down your power bill:
1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.
2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.
3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.
4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.
5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.

The engine starts easily and has good to excellent tyres with alloy wheels.
Interior is dry with no tears or rips, all trim appears to be present and everything works really well, fans, a/c, lights, wipers etc.
The stereo has been upgraded and it comes with a 6CD changer in the boot.
There is a second (Brand new) roof that can replace the current one though it hasn't leaked yet. There is also a second hand passenger door (only in white) that I bought to cover a minor dent, then I never really bothered to get it done as it always passed a warrant as is. Both of these are included in the price.
This car is the light of my life but due a spinal operation around 2013 I have not been able to drive it. I've held on, hoping to come right but have to finally admit that's it's not going to happen.
It's last warrant was October 2016 (passed easily) and since then my husband has started and driven it every week to keep it ticking over so it has only done approx 2000kms since then. Registration is on 3 monthly hold at present.
If anybody is interested please contact me and come up and see/drive it.
