I have a lovely coffee table (maybe American walnut) for sale, one draw ideal for remotes. Dimensions 1200mm x 745mm, 450mm high. $150, pick up from Otaki Beach. Only selling as its too big to go with my mew sofa chaise. There are some scratches on the back edge but is otherwise in good condition.

As a mostly volunteer-led organisation, our members know first hand the value and impact that a single volunteer can make in our communities. Imagine then how much can be achieved when several volunteers or even an entire street or neighbourhood decide to work together to achieve the same goal!
Whether you plan to coordinate your own volunteer driven activity, take part in one that’s already been setup, participate in National Volunteer Week (20-26 June), or simply show your own volunteers some extra love this month, know that every bit of effort to give back is a priceless investment in all of our futures.

To help get Winter ready keep your drainage flowing properly on your property. Take some time to make sure that drains and gutters are free from debris.
Maintaining your existing drainage solutions and freeing them from any build-up of natural debris (such as grass, weeds, summer growth, fallen leaves and silt) on your property is essential during this time of the year.
If you have any questions or need help with drainage solutions, give us a call. We're a local family business and here to help.

Unfortunately I am unable to climb ladders or look up to clean ceilings and walls and our ceilings are in need of some TLC.
