🏡✨ Selling your home?
Don't underestimate the power of atmosphere! 🌺🍞 When potential buyers step into your home, consider their senses. A clean-smelling home is key, so say goodbye to cooking smells, cigarette smoke, and pet odours! 🚫
Sensitive noses out there? No worries! After banishing those odours, add a delightful touch – think fresh-baked bread for an emotional vibe, a bouquet of flowers for a burst of freshness, or try cinnamon magic! 🍞🌸✨
Boil cinnamon sticks for 2 minutes, let the aroma dance through your home, and turn off the heat once that cosy cinnamon scent wraps around every corner. 🍂🏠✨
Why cinnamon? It's linked to warmth, making your home even more irresistible.
Ready to charm those potential buyers? Let the scents do the talking! 💕

Unelected commissioners recommend they stay in power
That's the Stuff headline. I have watched on as these commissioners proselytize about how they respect democracy-and now this. I acknowledge Simeon Brown has rejected their proposal but all I see is these commissioners trying to cling on to power and their sinecure at all costs. It is unbelievable-they should be ashamed. Ms Tolley (who does not live here), Mr Selwood who gets flown up from god knows where, and the other two-spare me the platitudes about how they are only here for the benefit of Tauranga. No you are not. You are paid to impose what you think we want. What is that? An oligarchy? Democracy is not perfect but far better than what you propose. To completely misquote Bertrand Russell-let the people think. By the way Mr Rutherford (my absent aka missing in action BoP MP) if you can deign to read this-show some mettle.
