Hi,
We have just had a Pohutukawa cut down and have had it cut up for firewood. However, we have way too much so there is plenty available to anyone who want to just come round and help themselves. It's available on Brixham Way, off Rintoul Street in Newtown. There is some on the driveway past the garage just beyond the post box for number 18. There is also some up the footpath behind. Please help yourself.
Please contact eddlucas81@gmail.com for more info.
