This foam wedge (1.80m) is meant to fill the gap between mattress and headboard/wall on a king size bed.
I suppose you could also put it in the middle of a bed to prevent roll together 😀
The cover can be removed for washing.

With the cricket set to start at the Basin Reserve tomorrow, we may finally be getting some better weather.
The forecast for Friday is a bit messy, with strong winds forecast, but after that the weather should improve.

But it was one Wellington teacher Caroline Robertson rose to.
Robertson, a German teacher and director of international students at Samuel Marsden Collegiate School, won the inaugural ASG Parents’ Award at the National Excellence in Teaching Awards, held virtually on Tuesday night.
Robertson, known to her students (and some parents) affectionately as Frau, said she felt humbled, and a bit overwhelmed, to have received the award.

Good things take time and the couple know this. And this is what makes their food so special.
At the Harbourside Market on Wellington’s waterfront every Sunday, Shree Balasubramaniam and Balu Rajagopal are famous for their South-Indian masala dosa.
The dish consists of a crunchy golden pancake-like roll made from rice and lentils, which are soaked and stone ground and then fermented for five days.
The batter is spread across a hotplate, then artfully rolled up to resemble a tent and placed on a plate on top of two tasty curries – one potato masala and the other, tamarind and orange.

Hullo Neighbourly folk, I thought you might be interested in the recent poll on having a holiday on your birthday.

This white denim jacket with embroidered back has never been worn and has the price tag still on it.
Although it says size 18 on it, it would be best for a size 16 or 14.

It is mandatory under the Consumer Information Standards (Care Labelling) Regulations 2000 for many new textile goods supplied in New Zealand to comply with specific sections of the Standard AS/NZS 1957:1998 Textiles – Care labelling.

The purpose of the care labelling consumer information standard is to make sure that:
• consumers are aware of the method and cost of caring for textile products when they are buying them
• a cleaner can confidently use the information to take care of the textiles
• the textile’s life is not shortened by inappropriate care information or no information
• the textile is not damaged or destroyed by inappropriate care.
It is illegal to supply textile goods that do not comply with this standard and the regulations.
The regulations set out the types of textile goods covered by the standard and what parts of the standard apply to New Zealand.
The standard sets out the words, terms and symbols to use on a label to show the correct way to care for textile goods, including dry-cleaning and washing.
The regulations are issued under section 27 of the Fair Trading Act 1986.
Who do the regulations apply to?
Any person supplying, offering to supply or advertising the supply of new textiles, that require care labelling information, must comply with the regulations. Any person includes retailers, importers, distributors and manufacturers.
Types of supply include textile goods for sale in a shop, on internet auction sites, at markets or stalls or in craft shops.
What textile items have to be labelled with care information?
The care labelling standard contains more details and requirements, some of which are very technical. You should read both the regulations and the standard to make sure you understand all the labelling requirements.
