Does anybody know of anyone doing alpaca shearing in the Wairarapa. Sadly Paul Eising passed away earlier this year. He had been shearing our alpacas for 20 years.
Dear neighbours,
If you've ever struggled with this question, houseplant collector Moira West (400 indoor plants and growing!) has the answers.

"We monitor over 80 swimming spots in our region over summer to help make sure you can check where it’s safe to swim."

The staples of pumpkins, beetroot, cabbage and carrots do well here, he says, with a wide variety of other crops including spring onions, kohlrabi, celery, fennel, kale, potatoes, silverbeet, leek, mint and herbs.

Aside from that, this is a very well made level:

If you can fix the circuit board, you've got yourself a bargain - these are worth over $400
Great remote, but i just prefer using my individual remotes, plus I urgently need some money.

This is a universal remote that works with over 270,000 devices, including televisions, DVD players, stereos and more.
Your Harmony 350 allows you merge the remotes of up to 8 of your home entertainment devices into one so you can, and should! keep those other remotes out of sight.
The Harmony software will guide you through entering the manufacturer and model numbers of your home devices so Harmony understands how to control them. It then helps you create your Watch TV Activity (or scene) so you're only one-button away controlling your devices.
This remote requires an internet-connected computer to set up.
VERY comfortable feel in the hand in my opinion.
Will post for $6-$7
