It's good to get some fresh air circulating with these hot days, but you might find your windows sticky or hard to open.
If they're aluminium windows - check the friction stays.
Like sliding door tracks you need to keep the friction stay track free from dirt and grime and keep the hinge mechanism clean. You can lubricate the metal pivot points with a little machine oil or CRC.
Conversely your window may flop open without any friction to keep it in place. If that's the case, chances are they need replacing, so give Jim a call to get them sorted. ph 0210 6988932

Can the community afford the cost of the $26.1m facility - or can it not afford to live without it?
Do you think it should get the green light now or be revisited in 2021?

I have a free queen bed base to give away, no mattress sorry and does not have legs as they were lost in a house move a few years ago (I’m sure you could pick these up somewhere cheap) it’s about 5 years old and in good condition - pick up only in Kaiapoi.
