See that cross-trainer gathering dust in your garage?
I'd really love to take it off your hands! Can pick up.
I've recently embarked on a healthier lifestyle after being quite sick last year. Varying factors including medication, made me turn into a bit of a blimp, and I decided to change that.
A friend recently lent me a cross-trainer, and I'm making great headway into my fitness and the turning into a smaller blimp thing, which is great, my fitness is improving daily too.
BUT, I have to give that trainer back (cries tears and applies padlocked steel chains), and I'm wondering if anybody (who isn't now motivated by this kick I'm on, and decides to dust off your crosstrainer), then I'm wondering if anybody would like to swap for me getting rid of that cumbersome bit of exercise equipment.
I'm a great gardener with 25 years experience. Or I've got a couple of Aloe Plictalis, and various other succulents I could swap?
If you're wanting that extraneous bit of exercise equipment - now draped with tomorrows ironing - removed from the spare room, I'm the person to help you out!
Cheers Neighbours and have a great day in the sun!
Thank you so much Emma and Jonny who came to my elliptical rescue! Another amazing Neighbourly deed by amazing Neighbourly people
💨 Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?
It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! 🌧️ We’ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.
In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!
The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! ☀️
Any local hidden spots or activities you’d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! 👇
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
38.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
61.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
