Okay, it is not Friday but this picture by Rosa Marie is too good not to use.

You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.
Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

HIS LETTER on being shot at Gallipoli.
The lifting part broke and we are replacing it. Due to the bad weather and holidays, this bit is still available if anyone wants it. Hopefully will be gone by early next week so be in now if you want it :)
Still runs well. One clip in the hose that goes in the side to vent is broken off and the hose itself has some holes (bloody cat pouncing on it) but it still stays in with the other 2 clips.

One clip in the hose that goes in the side to vent is broken off and the hose itself has some holes (bloody cat pouncing on it) but it still stays in with the other 2 clips. Currently set for left side venting (as you look at it) but can be changed to rear or right - a matter of moving the hose inside the body (easily done). Have the original manual as well.
MUST BE COLLECTED - we have no way of moving it.

"This bird is believe it, or not, I believe is Black Tern! "The Black Tern is one of four marsh tern species found worldwide and the rarest in New Zealand, with one accepted sighting north of Wellington in 2022. When breeding it is a small black tern with grey wings. It is pale in non-breeding plumage (as was the only local record).
Like the closely related white-winged black tern, the black tern can be found in a range of freshwater and estuarine habitats. The nominate form breeds in Eurasia, migrating to Africa to winter, while the North America subspecies migrates to Central and South America" We now have at least three birds in New Zealand, as I spotted three individual birds with the flock of White Fronted Terns. So rare in NZ. Very rapt, and a great find."
