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!

Hi there,
I’m on the hunt for a manrobe (one of those pieces of furniture that has a cupboard down one side and drawers down the other). I’m not worried if it needs a little work. Preferably Art Deco style but will consider anything.

Did you know just like any glass, Solar Panels get attacked by the elements and this corrosion reduces their efficiency?

With the addition of ClearShield glass treatment to the solar panels this prevents corrosion and increases light transmission by 8 to 11% and as a result an increase in energy output.
So before you fix those new Solar Panels to the roof it is definitely worthwhile to get them ClearShielded first. Once fixed to the roof generally they are difficult to access, so difficult to ClearShield and Clean.

Sadly, in the majority of cases, there were things the rider could have done to prevent the crash, “and that breaks my heart”, says Graeme. His solution? “Do some training”. It just might save your life.

ASB is aware of a current SMS ('smishing') scam where people have been sent a text message pretending to be from the bank. The 'smishing' SMS contains a link that once clicked prompts the person to provide personal information and a wide range of details such as login details and their Netcode.
ASB wants to remind everyone that legitimate messages from any bank would never ask customers to supply personal information, login details or second-factor identification.
The ASB Contact Centre is available on 0800 803 804 if a customer is concerned about any suspicious messages they receive. Read more here

As a computer technician, I try my best to stay on top of the recent bugs, issues and reports associated with each new windows update.
Since April I've been getting a lot of emails from previous customers, friends and family that have experienced a forced stoppage on booting up their Windows 10 laptops/computers etc. More commonly affecting the machines that run on AMD processors (there should be a sticker on the machine)
This can be an infuriating bug that forces your device into a constant loop of failing to load, resulting in the errors (commonly):
Blue Screen of Death (We're sorry, your PC ran into an issue *sad face emoji so the developers look caring*)
This typically happens when there is a clash between when certain software(s) like anti virus protection, USB drivers, Bluetooth drivers, and other security/devices/changes made during these updates. Information gets collected, you're given an error number (eg: 1x00023xxx) and told where you can search this number for specifics.
After flashing this at you and scaring you, it will then enter start up repair!
Breathe a sigh of relief, it's going to fix itself!
It won't.
It's been reported to me that the next error message they receive is:
Windows Start Up Repair was unable to repair your device.
Working on this bug since April has been infuriating for me, and this is what I do! The extreme stoppages this update causes left me diagnosing and repairing multiple issues for people that were considering throwing out their existing computer and buying an upgraded one.
Hold your money!!! There's no need to spend hundreds on a new laptop or computer. If you are having any troubles here, I've had a pretty solid start in fixing 85% (made up stats, but not too inaccurate) of the problems.
It's a long process, but I don't charge for time. Only for the job that I'm doing, since most of the fixes involve waiting for things to scan and load.
Any and all questions welcome!
Regards,
Matthew Bold
