I am looking for a garden gate to fence off my
Backyard stream. I have some Pekin ducks and a roving dog came onto my section a few days ago and savaged one of them. So when I find a gate and know the size of it I can then get a trellis from Mega and fence off the backyard area to keep the dogs… View moreI am looking for a garden gate to fence off my
Backyard stream. I have some Pekin ducks and a roving dog came onto my section a few days ago and savaged one of them. So when I find a gate and know the size of it I can then get a trellis from Mega and fence off the backyard area to keep the dogs out.
Am happy to pay.

The MOC, based at Police National Headquarters in Wellington, is providing logistical, resource and communication support to all districts along the hīkoi route.
Major Operations Director Superintendent Kelly Ryan says Police have been engaged with hīkoi organisers for many weeks.
“Our discussions with organisers to date have been positive and we expect the hīkoi to be conducted in a peaceful and lawful manner,” she says.
The hīkoi is expected to leave Northland today (Monday 11 November) and travel to Wellington, arriving at Parliament between Monday 18 and Tuesday 19 November.
“We’ve planned for large numbers to join the hīkoi, with disruption likely to some roads, including highways and main streets along the route,” Superintendent Ryan says.
“The MOC will support our frontline, district-based staff with the management of people, vehicles and activities, while also maintaining central oversight.
“We will continue to co-ordinate with iwi leaders and our partners across government to ensure public safety and minimal disruption to people going about their daily routine.
“We’re also well connected with NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi and local councils to ensure road users have up-to-date information and can plan accordingly.
“The MOC will remain in place while the hīkoi is in Wellington and as participants make their way back home safely.”
