Small green house - needs work

Dani from Melrose

Homemade green house. Built about 6 years ago.

Structurally sound. The windows were made with some kind of perspex/plastic, most of which has worn off now. Other than that, the structure seems solid. The door opens and closes great. The roofing seems ok.
The floor area would be roughly 1.5m squared in total.

This could be done up to make a new greenhouse, kids play house or dog kennel maybe? Chickens?

Easy to pick up as it has now been moved up to our driveway from down the bank where it was originally located. You will need at least 2 strong people to lift it and a truck or trailer with something to secure it. It will not fit inside a car. PM me if you are keen.

Pick up near Truby King Gardens,
Melrose

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
