"This is our spring friend, Thomas the tūī , enjoying nectar from a kowhai tree my sister gave us as a present over 20 years ago! The kowhai is such a feature in our garden, having been replanted as a small tree, which hadn't as yet flowered, from our first home in Standen St. Thanks heaps Deb."

Room for rent available from December

Paul from Thorndon

We have a flatmate moving out at the beginning of December so we need to find someone else to move into our house to replace them.

Current flatmates are 2 professonal males, early 30's & 40's. We are both very easy going, sociable and looking for someone similar in age and interests.… View more
We have a flatmate moving out at the beginning of December so we need to find someone else to move into our house to replace them.

Current flatmates are 2 professonal males, early 30's & 40's. We are both very easy going, sociable and looking for someone similar in age and interests. Male or Female, we aren't picky!

House is located in Thorndon, off Bowen St. Rent will start at $235 a week but we have been advised it will be increasing $15 / week in January, so easier to say $250 / week, plus expenses, which include Fibre Internet & TV services.

You can message me here or text me on 02102366806 for a viewing.

Thanks, Paul

Location is Johnsonville (we've moved)

White lockable printer cupboard/drawer. The drawer part comes out on rollers but when closed completely hides the printer and cables.
Good sturdy and well designed retractable runners for the sliding drawer.

One main 'drawer' holds a printer and there is another lower drawer.

We had it sitting under a larger table but also works well as a stand alone piece of furntiure.

There is a combination lock built into the top surface which allows for the door to be locked.

There is a slot at the back of the sliding drawer for the power cord.

Dimensions 800MM long (deep)

450mm wide

720 mm high.

Printer drawer size is 600mm long by 380mm wide by 280mm high. Think the height of the drawer can be adjusted but not the width or length.

Perfect condition - selling as moved house and doesn't really fit new house configuration.

Message me for viewing or for more info.

Price: $100
