Wilton based.
We are back from holidays - sorry for that - in mean time have done new WOF and is now due January 2022
Stylish spacious 7-seats family car - perfectly comfortable for travelling in the holidays, drive the sports team, or transport stuff with all back seats flat alike a station wagon.

There are many Honda Odysseys around simply because they are great economical cars!

Includes 2 key-less keys , airbags, tinted windows, reverse beep & corner sensor, electric windows etc etc. Serviced annually, and tires under 3 years old - drives Average 9km/ltr in town / 14km/ltr long distance if car not completely full.

2 sets of dashboard buttons; English and Japanese. Center screen disconnected - we never cared.

Incredible really that not all station wagons have 7 seats - as fold down is with simply press of button! (pic on complete flat back is avail - but are only allowed 10 pics, and pic with only back seat folded is most common mode)

Check her out - as she priced to sell when compared to similar year/odo kms.
Call 022 0691743 to test drive :).

Price: $6,000

Wellington's earthquake prone pop-up library deemed safe

One of Wellington's new pop-up libraries is safe but “earthquake-prone”, after the council said it was fine, moved in with a Mayoral speech, then slapped stickers on the front doors two days later.
A sign at Te Awe library, on Brandon St, shows the building is at 16 per cent of new building standard, not because it is quake-prone but because it is yet to get the final council tick-off for strengthening work. The Code of Compliance Certificate (CCC) has been described by the council as being in the final stages since at-least July.
There are roughly 560 buildings, including 283 seen as high priority, around the city, which must be strengthened or demolished to meet new earthquake regulations brought in after the destruction caused by the Kaikōura earthquake.

A major waste water pipe has burst in central Wellington, closing roads and disrupting morning traffic. The pipe burst at the intersection of Victoria Street and Mercer Street yesterday afternoon. People in the central city are being asked to only flush the toilet if it is "essential".
The central Wellington sewerage pipe that broke, closing central city streets, was more than 100 years old.
Sewage flowed out onto the road after a pipe ruptured at the intersection of Victoria and Mercer streets on Monday afternoon.
Wellington Water confirmed the failed pipe was installed around the year 1910.
Repairing it is expected to take two to three days.

"WHAT'S SPECIAL ABOUT ME
My ideal home would have a big garden for me to explore and potter around while supervised. I would suit a family that has had dogs before as I am a big boy with a bit of strength. I would love to go for walks with my new family and check out this wonderful country we live in. When I have nothing to do I have shown the ability to escape out of medium to high fencing so I need a plan to be contained during the day that doesn't involve being tied or tethered. Going to work with my new human companion would be great for me. I am not suited to a home with/next to cats and other small animals or livestock. If you are looking for a bigger dog that is pretty laid back then make an appointment to come and meet me."
