Macbook pro silver

Mohit from Johnsonville

Selling my macbook pro .
Bought it in end of 2016 but barely used it for basic purposes.
i bought it for 2500 with 3 years warranty, however still under one more year for warranty so technically you still get one year warranty as brand new product gets.
Looking for decent offers around $1600

Dishonesty threatens NZ's honesty stalls

Paul Reporter from Stuff

Hi Neighbours,

As you drive around our beautiful country this summer, you'll see honesty stalls, selling everything from fruit and vegetables to pine cones, dotted along our highways.

Honesty stalls in rural NZ may be the "Kiwi way", but thieves are making it difficult to survive.

Hi Neighbours,

As you drive around our beautiful country this summer, you'll see honesty stalls, selling everything from fruit and vegetables to pine cones, dotted along our highways.

Honesty stalls in rural NZ may be the "Kiwi way", but thieves are making it difficult to survive.

One grower-family was targeted with a spate of $100 per day thefts.

But out-of-pocket growers have pledged to continue; keeping the "Kiwi tradition" alive, in spite of thieves.

Do you make the most of honesty stalls when you're driving throughout New Zealand?

Is it a vespula wasp (German or common) or a paper wasp? Find out the difference here.

Once you know which type of wasp to target, the next step is to use the correct control method.

- For paper wasps, there are commercially available sprays at hardware stores around the country. The important things to note are not to get too close (these sprays can go up to four metres), and to do it at dusk once the wasps have returned to their nests. If you are unsure where the nests are, you can usually follow the wasp to it, as they don't travel too far away.

- ​Vespex is a protein-based bait which is suitable for use on the vespula wasp species. This is usually done at landscape scale as a small tub of bait can cover a large area. You don't need to find the nests as the wasps carry the bait home with them. Vespex is not at all attractive to bees. If there is a problem in your area you can learn all about the use of vespex here. You will need to be an approved user - a short 10-minute video course is all that is required. Vespex is not suitable for paper wasps as they prefer live bait. You can also contribute to our fight against wasps here: givealittle.co.nz...

Giving high-priced ice creams a licking

Make your 2019 New Years resolution to be prepared!

In the event of a major earthquake, the pipes underground that bring drinking water to, and take wastewater from your home, could be broken.

This means you will be relying on the stored water you have at home for at least the first seven days following an earthquake. And you'll need a plan for the safe disposal of your wastewater.

Kia ora koutou,
My wife, Alexa, and I are currently house sitting in Khandallah and we are looking for house sits in the surrounding area from 2 February through May, 2019.
So far this year we have house sat and pet minded at eight different addresses in Khandallah and Ngaio, we have been Police vetted by the House Sitting Company, and we have very content house owners to call upon should you require references.
We love pets (cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, you name it!) and have both had pets growing up, so we know how to look after them - even the toughest.
So, if you require someone to mind your beloved pets or look after your place then get in touch.
Contact me on 0272381074 or email brettjeffreyreid@gmail.com
Don't hesitate to drop us a line. We'd love to meet you to discuss your house sit. :)
