"I am currently in a foster home with my sisters, and my foster mum says I am timid but become friendly with time and patience... can you give that to me? I would do best in a quiet and stable home, with people around to offer me support. I would not settle with a busy home or one with young children. I am quite a chatter box and have a very playful side. If this sounds like your kind of cat , please get in touch and we will put you in touch with my foster mum."

Karori Lions recent E-Waste Recycling Day

Bulletin Editor from Karori Lions Club

Last Saturday we ran our twice-yearly e-waste drop off collection at the Karori Community Centre, which proved to be as popular as ever. While volumes were not markedly up, many customers were exceptionally generous with the donations they made in return for leaving their unwanted electronic goods with us. All net proceeds from Lions projects are returned to the community. A double whammy here was that the company ultimately receiving the goods was Recycling for Charity, who make a contribution to charities from their profits derived from refurbishing or recycling the goods (in a guaranteed data secure and environmentally sound manner).
Pictured: Some Karori Lions with the Recycling for Charity team gearing up for an avalanche of electronic waste and surplus goods.

As we head into winter, the weather's making it more difficult to do the jobs around the house you've been meaning to get to...we get it!

With a group of five hardy, all-weather loving guys on the team, we can get to these jobs for you and we do a great job!

Now is the perfect time to waterblast slippery footpaths, courtyards and decks. It's also a great time for giving the lawn some TLC and to mulch garden beds, so you don't have to worry about pulling weeds over the winter.

Offering a variety of services, Steve's Jobs can enhance your outdoors (whether it's your own place or a rental property) and we have availability NOW.

Check out our website which has before and after pics, testimonials and a full list of services at www.stevesjobs.co.nz... and feel free to get in touch.

Enjoy the end of the week and the weekend ahead!

Cheers,

Steve
