Have a lonely driveway or melancholy patch of lawn in Wellington that's looking for company over the long winter nights?

Look no further! We're a Kiwi/Irish yopro couple who live in our van, Jean-Claude (a Ford Transit Jumbo). We're looking for somewhere flat in central Wellington to park him, and live in him primarily during the week - most weekends will be for adventuring.

We are fully self-contained, we will just need to borrow your hose from time to time to fill up our water tank. Aside from that, you will hardly even know we're there (unless you want to, in which case come over for a yarn and a cuppa!)

We're looking to pay you $100 per week, in cash or by bank deposit, and happy to keep the arrangement fairly flexible.

If this sounds like you, or someone you know then please reach out! Alicia 027 228 2144

Looking to find somewhere to 'move in' in the next 2-3 weeks :v:

Small businesses are vital to the recovery of our economy.

During the Covid-19 restrictions, business owners have shown initiative, hard work and resilience to keep afloat.

But many have been hit hard.

Lack of clarity about just how heavy the toll of the restrictions have been on individual businesses and their ability to quickly rebound adds to the uncertainty of the national economic recovery.

Therefore, Prosper is launching a survey targeted at finding out the scale of Covid-19's impact.

You can take that survey right now – it will only take a few minutes.

Hi everyone and a big woohoo for getting us to lockdown level 2. 👍We're hoping you'll all be so busy enjoying all your favourite shops, cafes, eateries and fave spots again, that you wont mind that we've decided to stay closed a little longer. ☕️🍰🍟🍔🏖

We don't believe we can offer you a quality painting experience and a 100% covid safe environment, so we'd rather wait till we can be absolutely sure we can deliver to our previous awesome Paint Party standard again before we reopen the studio for in person painting classes.

Our goal has always been to share the joy and healing of art with you, and we cant wait to get back to teaching you face to face as soon as we feel we can safely do so. We'll reassess as we get closer to Level 1.

Thanks so much for all the love, messages and ongoing support over the last couple of months. We're having a blast with virtual paint parties, but we really miss having you in the studio and can't wait to serve you in person again soon.
Till then, stay safe, stay healthy, stay happy
Aroha nui 😍

PS If you'd like to learn to paint with us online, join our virtual paint parties. More info here heartforart.co.nz...
