Baby Grand Piano - Free to a Good Home!! - Needs to be gone before 21 November
I need to dispose of a baby grand piano on behalf of someone. The piano and stool are free but you would have to pay for a mover. I could assist to organise that with my contacts which, given it's movers busiest time of the year, would be useful.
The owner says: The tone is quite lovely and it sounds good when played. I can’t swear to the length but it should be about 4’11. It's due for a tune. The ivories are in good condition, nothing sticky about the hammers. It's a basic piano and a beautiful piece of furniture. I need to let it go and would be very happy for someone to take it for the cost of moving.
A piano reconditioning specialist said: It's a reasonably good make. It needs work, including restringing. The easiest is to give it away "as is" on the understanding it needs work. It is a baby grand so will always be a bit short on tone.
Please call me on 027 450 5057 if you are seriously interested.
I can't seem to add a picture but can send one separately if needed.
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟
I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Constable Street car wash rip off!
Hi, today I went to the Constable Street car wash that's beside the petrol station. After depositing $6 for three different rinse cycles I discovered that there was no water pressure for any of them. I had just foamed my car so I had to drive around and join the que again to use the left car wash....this time I discovered that $2 only rinses half of my small Suzuki Swift whereas $2 used to rinse the whole car nicely. Two or three weeks ago I encountered the same 'no water pressure' problem there. I imagine that people will be depositing $2 coins to no avail in a continuous stream. It appears that the owner doesn't care about providing a proper service to to their paying customers.
