We have high standards and our bakers do too, which is why there are multiple quality checks in place at the bakery and only the best looking buns make the cut.

We use less than a teaspoon of sugar in each of the buns which gives them the colour and texture that makes them perfect for burgers.

550mm (w) x 445mm (d) x 545mm (h)
-Drawer dimensions: 450mm (w) x 115mm (h) x 380mm (d)

Due to these being handmade and age there are some small imperfections, but otherwise they are in good condition. The gap along the bottom shelf just needs to be filled with wood filler.

There is some damage to these bedside tables, described below:
One of the bedside tables has 2 chips (as pictured):
- One is on the front on the left side of the drawer (the wood sliver was recovered so could be glued back in place).
- Another is on the rear left leg (the wood sliver was recovered so could be glued back in place).

The other table has a split in the wood on the front of the drawer.

NO RESPECT.

Eileen from Papamoa Beach

Did anyone listen to the appalling rant from a resident of the Ramada Hotel facility in Auckland.

A resident (who by the way he sounded probably hasn't been a NZer for that long ) telling a pilot who sounded like a NZer who was checking in to the hotel to go back where he came from. How dare that man speak to the pilot who is risking his own health to bring NZers and others back into our Country. The pilot to his credit remained calm and polite. These front line people do not need more stress added to their day than they already have. Someone should be telling that man he needs to apologies to that pilot, I was appalled because that behaviour is definately not the "New Zealand" way.
