Hi Neighbours, we have an older hand electric mixer that still works, but the mechanism to hold the beaters in place has broken on one side, so one beater will not stay in place. We have bought a new one, but this one is up for grabs if you want it. Comes with beaters or dough hooks.

please bear with me as I will need to make a couple of posts as the text is apparently too long for Neighbourly..
part 1...
I signed a petition against the three waters proposals and received a response that looks to clarify the issue of true democratic representation in LHCC is not alive and certainly not well - regardless of whom you desire in the big house - the local governance should be for the local communities and what they want and the mayors role should be to support that and not their own central gvt political agendas...
""Byron, thanks for your email to my councillor email address. Please see my article below.
A Tale of Two Cities*
A great mystery of 2022 is how it came to be that the Upper Hutt and Lower Hutt Mayors formed polar opposite views on Three Waters.
The two cities share the same water collection and treatment system, the same water management (Wellington Water), occupy in the same valley and share the same cost structures.
Three public opinion polls in the two cities have revealed strong resident opposition to the Labour Government’s centralisation of water management, including 50% iwi control through co-governance.
So how is it that, despite public opposition in both cities, Mayor Wayne Guppy of Upper Hutt is opposed but Mayor Campbell Barry is not?
The answer is pretty straightforward. In 2019 Cr Campbell Barry campaigned for the Hutt City mayoralty under a Labour ticket. What the public was never told is that the Labour Party exacts a high price from candidates who use their trademark.
It will surprise most people to learn that the Labour Party requires that candidates using the Labour logo sign a pledge to support and implement Labour policy irrespective of the views of local residents. Further, all Labour candidates in a local body election pledge to block vote on issues of Labour policy.
next part 2.....

Tilly and her brother Preston are looking for a new home. Can you help them.

"I am a big lover of all things treats and cuddles, and will win you over the first chance I get! My brother and I haven't had the best life before arriving at the SPCA but have since had a bit of a makeover and are feeling better as each day passes. We love having the human companionship and comfort of home life but it doesn't compare to the real thing! Now is the time where we are ready to find a home who is committed to dog ownership and all it involves. I am not suited to a home with cats or smaller animals. I would prefer a home either with my brother Preston or by myself. If I do go home by myself, I'd want someone home part time or full time. I am not keen on places like dog parks or daycare. To be honest, the perfect day would be a nice walk then lazing at home! I'm more comfortable with adults or teenage children than little humans."
