Council inspectors found that while the tree house did not breach the privacy of the neighbours across the back fence, it did fail Building Code requirements. The council had concerns over the barriers, its structure, durability and access to stairs, ladders and handrails.

It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!

The recovered property is believed to have been stolen in residential burglaries that have taken place in Dunedin over the last few months.
Police also located a firearm, a small amount of drugs, and drug utensils at the address.
Two men, aged 28 and 40, have been charged with burglary and firearms offences, and will appear in Dunedin District Court on Wednesday 27 June.
Constable Kylie Batten says Police are really pleased to have recovered so much stolen property.
“Over the next few weeks we hope to be able to return some of the property to the victims of some of these burglaries,” Constable Batten said.
“Having your home entered and having your property stolen is a huge invasion and can be extremely upsetting for victims.”
“To be able to return property to people, especially when that property has a great deal of meaning to its owner, is really satisfying.”
Police will now undertake enquiries to establish where each item recovered has come from. This process is expected to take several weeks.
