Razor blades in the walls....

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

Has anyone ever seen something like the image below in an older Kiwi home? Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a… View moreHas anyone ever seen something like the image below in an older Kiwi home? Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a nasty, rusty surprise.
I'm certain I've seen something like this here in Aotearoa-NZ, but can't for the life of me recall where. It was in the back of the medicine cupboard. Let us know if you've seen, had - or have - one in your home.

Welcome to 2021 from Rural Wireless Broadband

Peter from Rural Wireless Limited

Last year has been a challenge to most of us with the onset of Covert 19, job losses and uncertainty over where too from here. We are all hoping for a much better 2021 and to make up for lost time spent worrying about the dreaded virus. We can all be thankful that New Zealand has been one of the … View moreLast year has been a challenge to most of us with the onset of Covert 19, job losses and uncertainty over where too from here. We are all hoping for a much better 2021 and to make up for lost time spent worrying about the dreaded virus. We can all be thankful that New Zealand has been one of the least affected countries in the world.
If there is one thing we have learned during this time is that more and more people have been working from home and are demanding faster and more reliable internet especially those in rural areas where broadband conductivity can be a challenge. Customers are now asking for not only faster speeds but more data which some of the national providers are now finding difficult to meet with maximum rural plans only catering for customer wanting less than 300GB per month.
Rural Wireless now have the capacity to provide unlimited rural data for larger users without those pesky over usage charges.

Check out our website to see if you’re in reach of our local rural network.

We think we've settled the argument here.

To help nurture those conversations, we invite you to our Care Centre Open Days at your local Ryman village. A tour will give you first-hand experience of our village communities and the exceptional care we provide. Care options include the extra support of a serviced apartment, resthome, hospital and specialist dementia care.
