We have 12x small rose bushes in our Atawhai garden that we want rid of. They are various shades of pink plus some white. No idea what variety of roses they are.
You are welcome to come have a look on Sunday / next week and dig them up if you would like to take home.

Hi, has anyone treated their cat successfully for Milliary Dermatitis, our cat is all scabby and she's constantly scratching. I phoned the vet but she said that pretty much all cats have it and there's nothing to be done ☹️ She's been wormed and de fleed and that makes no … View moreHi, has anyone treated their cat successfully for Milliary Dermatitis, our cat is all scabby and she's constantly scratching. I phoned the vet but she said that pretty much all cats have it and there's nothing to be done ☹️ She's been wormed and de fleed and that makes no difference. Also, I've put her on a dry food only diet 'purina' salmon, because chicken and beef can apparently cause allergies. Please don't suggest I bathing her, she just will not allow it!!!
Anyone interested in 2 sister goats? 1 year old. From a herd of quality milk producers. Saanen x. Bottle fed, used to human contact. They are as tame as any other pet you might have at home. However, they do eat anything - grass, leaves, gorse, blackberry, veggies...
Windsurf pole wanted. Condition immaterial as not needed for sailing. Phone/text Jim 0275452321

This stuff is extremely toxic and was NEVER meant to be used in anything other than a bait station! Note on page 2 that "bait should be prevented from entering streams or waterways". Also on page 2 re loading bait. This will be happening in Brook Street just across the load from homes - how will these residents (and their pets) be protected from dust? Page 3 discusses secondary poisoning - this will affect domestic cats (if they eat a non-mortally poisoned bird or mouse) and dogs (who scavenge any non-mortally poisoned creature). The sanctuary fence has proven that it cannot remain entire in basic weather conditions. Page 4 again states "take measures to minimise the chance of baits entering any body ot water". How are the Sanctuary volunteers going to manage this? It goes on to say "exposed bodies of all poisoned animals whould be collected and destroyed by complete burning or deep burial at a landfill approved for hazardous wastes". Again, how it this being managed?

Check out the link above - read about how the animals suffer, how toxic it is to fish, how long it takes to die and the high risk of secondary poisoning! Definitely NOT the type of substance you want in your neighbourhood.......
Have lots of boxes, banana and good study boxes for moving if anyone interested. Ph 021947627
Two house fires in Nelson have prompted emergency services to remind residents to check their smoke alarms, chimneys and electrical equipment with winter approaching.
This system was completed before the end of the school holidays. Using the Winaico WST260w solar panels with the Fronius Symo 10kw 3phase inverters the system will potentially generate 26,000kWh per year for the school.

As we head in to winter, check out these 5 top tips for cutting down your power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.
2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.
3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.
4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.
5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.
