3 outdoor settings for summer dining

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Breakfast in the sun:
Nothing really beats breakfast in the sun on a summer’s morning.

A bar cart is the perfect option for catering your brekkie outside. Fill it up with enough food to satisfy everyone’s needs and then roll it into the shade after everyone has finished serving themselves.

An ottoman makes for the perfect outdoor table. Use it for dining with cushions as your seats on a summer morning.

A relaxing midday set up
Midday in summer is when the heat really ramps up, so it’s the perfect time to lie back and read a book in the shade. Set up the ideal outdoor lounge with a woven day bed and outdoor coffee table.

Woven furniture allows the background, and sunlight, to show through. It has an airy feel and is a good choice for a small space.

Romantic dusk dining alfresco
We’re lucky enough in summer not only to enjoy breakfast outside, but also dinner if we want to.

Set up a romantic dining spot in your garden with an elegant table and chair set and a few linen throws on hand, in case it gets cold.

Public Meeting To SAVE TAURANGA

Maurice from Tauranga City

The commissioners have been a disaster! Their Long-Term Plan (LTP) will destroy the character and bankrupt Tauranga. This election is between those candidates who support the LTP and those who don't.
Come and to Garth Mathieson & John Robson tell the facts and what you need to do to save our city. This will be the most important meeting you will attend. NOT TO BE MISSED.
Consider ... Why have the commissioners committed to spend over $1 Billion dollars on the Te Papa Ward and little on any others. But all ratepayers in the other 7 wards will pay for the developments.
Thursday 20th June at 6.30pm at the Atrium 252 Otumoetai Rd - Saturday 22nd June at 5.15pm at Bethlehem Hall 239 St Hwy 2 - Sunday 23 June at Club Mount 45 Kawaka St Mount Maunganui.
