What we don't want to see on The Block NZ

Colleen Hawkes Reporter from Homed

The Block NZ is back on our screens on Monday, but let's hope there are no more silly decor challenges and over-the-top reserves.

Blisters, a bleeding nose, sore gut and jelly legs couldn’t stop George Black.

The 24-year-old successfully ran from North Canterbury to Christchurch – in size 8 Red Band gumboots – with the aim to raise more than $10,000 for farmers going through tough times, particularly after recent floods. He surpassed the mark by more than $4000.

Well done George!

This is one AMAZING CRYSTAL BRACELET
Carnelian, Black Agate & Fire Brick Agate.

Beautiful made with natural 8mm faceted red-orange brown black lined agate, carnelian, and the lovely fire brick red. These colours compliment each other perfectly.

Carnelian, in its beautiful shades of orange, stimulates the Sacral Chakra, or Second Chakra, located below the naval and above the pubic bone at the front of the pelvis. It controls the flow of energy and is the center of gravity of the body.

Black Agate: like all black stones, is a grounding and protective crystal. It gives a calming peace. Black Agate gives inner strength to move on and is also very helpful in keeping the peace in stressful households.

Fire Brick Agate: is a protective and grounding stone with a calming energy. It is said to build a protective shield around the body, deflecting ill-wishing and harm and reflecting it back to its source. It stimulates energy and life force and is said to increase sexual vitality and libido.

This is one Beautiful Crystal Healing Bracelet.

Please get in touch. I make to order, any size. Clasp is Sterling Silver Strong and durable.

Price: $55

Hi Canterbury,

How's your community doing after the floods? Are you satisfied with the emergency response?

It's been over a week since 400% of the monthly average rainfall caused flooding in Canterbury, with multiple districts plunged into a state of emergency.

River engineers are working across the region, with sites being strengthened by machinery. Environment Canterbury Rivers manager, Leigh Griffiths, says that teams are continuing to monitor rainfall and river levels across the region.

"We're working closely with Civil Defence and the MetService to monitor the situation and will be posting rainfall and river flow updates on our website as the situation develops. We suggest that people avoid rivers and check the road conditions before travelling," he said.

The weather event triggered a state of emergency, hundreds of evacuations, and closed roads and bridges throughout the region. The red heavy rain warning was issued on Saturday night, the second since the warning's inception.

you don't have to turn it off just DOWN to a level that is suitable for the people who live around you.

WE DONT WANNA HEAR DUBSTEP OR HEAVE BASE from across 3 and a half paddocks at 11pm at night even if it is a long weekend.


PLEASE AND THANK YOU 😊
