I'm doing a good clean out and would like to give away some gardening things.

More to be posted so keep an eye out.

But for now I have a decent selection of different size plastic pots, about a meter (just under) of wire and plastic 'wire' too. Also have 3 metal arch things (you can tell I'm not a gardener!) And 3 bamboo-like arches.

All will be outside, 21 Hindmarsh St for pick up from 9am in the morning on Friday.

If you could take all the pots, I'd really appreciate it. First come, first served.

Thanks!

Does anyone remember them from their childhood? These strange slots allowed you to rid yourself of an old razor and never think of it again...but it also meant, years down the track, that someone renovating would be in for a nasty, rusty surprise.
I'm certain I've seen something like this here in Aotearoa-NZ, but can't for the life of me recall where. It was in the back of the medicine cupboard. Let us know if you've seen, had - or have - one in your home.

Wellington rivers could spell trouble for swimmers this week, with every popular spot in the region ranked as either unsuitable for swimming, or at least requiring caution.
Toxic algae blooms and elevated levels of E. Coli are prompting warnings from Land Air Water Aotearoa (LAWA), which provides updates on 125 spots in the Wellington region.
On Tuesday morning, according to LAWA, 16 of 20 popular river spots in the region were unsuitable for swimming, and caution was advised for the remaining four due to large amounts of E. Coli bacteria and toxic algae blooms.
Toxic algae and E. Coli both cause gastrointestinal illness and infections, with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
