Seeking Summer Pocket Money
After doing really well for the last couple of summers, and absolutely loving it, my soon-to-be 12-year-old has asked me to put the word out again about her availability for looking after your pets over the coming summer.
Over the last two summers she has she managed to earn enough to buy herself a cake mixer, a Fitbit, roller skates, clothes, lots of bits and bobs, endless packets of mentos, and funded all her spending money for an overseas trip, with enough left over for the rest of the year. 😊 Not sure what next year will bring for her but she’s keen to have a few dollars put away to make the most of whatever it is.
She's keen to feed small pets and birds, water pot plants/gardens, walk friendly dogs etc etc. Available immediately and throughout the summer up to the end of Jan (a couple of weekends away but we can discuss). Please keep her in mind if you're away for a few days or a few weeks.
Rates negotiable! References available from happy customers.
Needless to say she will be fully supervised! 😊 Text me on 0226206258, and she'll have her people talk to your people!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
