Wanted: Mountain Bike for 8yr old boy

Kathryn from West End

Hi Neighbours!

Happy Waitangi Weekend.

There’s a lovely young boy in our street from a family who’s got a lot on their plate at the moment, who could really do with a mountain bike to get him out & about, and maybe involved with a club.

Does anyone have a surplus one that they’d be … View more
Hi Neighbours!

Happy Waitangi Weekend.

There’s a lovely young boy in our street from a family who’s got a lot on their plate at the moment, who could really do with a mountain bike to get him out & about, and maybe involved with a club.

Does anyone have a surplus one that they’d be happy to either preferably donate, or sell for a modest price?

Thank you!

Re Sky Box

Peter from West End

Hi Guys, yesterday I posted a message about the new Sky box. I have done some extra checking and have found that the person I spoke to must have been confused between the the Sky Pod and the box, so I am pleased to say that all of us who are with Sky will get the new boxes when the trial has … View moreHi Guys, yesterday I posted a message about the new Sky box.

New Sky Box

Peter from West End

Thought I would pass on what I found out today. No doubt every one who has Sky TV has seen the ad for the new Sky Box. If you have applied for one like I did last year do not hold your breath. It seems that the only people who qualify getting one are Vodaphone customers only. When I asked why this … View moreThought I would pass on what I found out today. No doubt every one who has Sky TV has seen the ad for the new Sky Box. If you have applied for one like I did last year do not hold your breath. It seems that the only people who qualify getting one are Vodaphone customers only. When I asked why this was not mentioned in the ad the person I was speaking could not or would not give me answer. Even when I rang last year to book one I was not that they were for Vodaphone customers only. as a customer for the past 25 odd years In am not a happy chappy. But ther does not seem much one can do but grin and bear it

I have 6 beautiful pure bred mini lop kitts for sale, ready for their forever homes.

Both parents are vaccinated against Kalisi virus.
These are fluffy joyful bundles of cuteness.
Bunnies are beautiful and therapeutic for both young and old. they are sociable, love attention, and are easy to keep and care for.
Your bunny will come with a small bag of carry over pellets.
They have been sexed, but although 98% accurate, we all make mistakes.
Once these babies are gone from here, I have no control or responsibility as to their future, hence the reason I really need to stress that these rabbits will NEED to be cared for to the absolute! upmost.
They require a safe environment, dedicated attention, a dry, warm sleeping area with lots of hay. I absolutely recommend they be kept indoors, and be vaccinated against the virus (there are vets around this area that will do it, and for a reasonable cost) between 10-12 weeks.

#1&2 all together
#3 pure white, blue eyes. BOY #SOLD#
#4&5 mottled brown with grey highlights. BOY
#6&7 pure white, blue eyes. BOY
#8,&9 mottled brown white stripe on head. GIRL
#10 &11 pure white, blue eyes. BOY
#12&13 mottled brown small white stripe on head. GIRL
#14 & 15 mottled brown white stripe on head. GIRL
#16 dad – Gaston (not for sale)
#17 mum – Gypsie (not for sale)
Due to covid appearing to do the rounds again, there will be no ‘meet and greets’, however I can say that the white ones are a lot! More skitsy and active, and the brown ones are a lot more calm, quiet and shy.
Only genuine, caring, animal loving buyers please
Please text only. 021618034

Reception is not great here So i can't answer calls.
