Hi there,
I am not one to grumble regarding our local businesses, but sometimes they forget that the small lifestyle block holders are of value and reliable clients.
It has never been an issue seasonally to purchase 5 in 1 Vacs. for under 40 sheep.

I am not one to grumble regarding our local businesses, but sometimes they forget that the small lifestyle block holders are of value and reliable clients.
It has never been an issue seasonally to purchase 5 in 1 Vacs. for under 40 sheep.
(Noting $70 plus for 100mls and has to be used within 30days.)
Popped in today to get the Matrix $195 for worming and 5 in 1Vac.$70 ready for the Autumn Ewe/Lamb tidy up. Been a regular for 7 years, never been an issue, but today RVC told me I could get 10mls. only or buy the full pack.
Really it is time these companies realized, lifestyle blocks are growing, there is a place for smaller quantities of product.
Happy to receive feed back and any suggestions regarding helpful vets, for the smaller farmer.
Maybe go halves in a pack.
All items 14-16 and shoes size 9. These are quality items with some good labels. Cape is Wolsey and was expensive and the boots alone hardly worn were $100 from Hannahs. All items are in good condition and bundle would be in excess of $500 new. Pair of black trousers included but need hem taken … View moreAll items 14-16 and shoes size 9. These are quality items with some good labels. Cape is Wolsey and was expensive and the boots alone hardly worn were $100 from Hannahs. All items are in good condition and bundle would be in excess of $500 new. Pair of black trousers included but need hem taken up. Not in picture. Some great mix/match here. Photos don't do items justice.

Please bear with me as I will only be checking my neighbourly account once or twice daily to answer any questions.

Bowman, who runs Oxford Bird Rescue in North Canterbury with wife Tracey, said the volume of little owls they looked after this year had been huge, with about 30 juveniles coming in for rehabilitation.
That was about 10 times the number they would normally expect, and he believed it could be because of a decrease in bugs and insects, the main component of their diet.
Oxford Bird Rescue has been named as a finalist in the MainPower Community Fund, and North Cantabrians are encouraged to vote for them by Friday, March 13.
Top of the South along with Canterbury mounted games assoc. are holding a fun competition at Hamner Springs on the 18th-19th April 2020. This event is open to the public to come along and watch some fast exciting entertainment FREE.

From 12am on Friday, the Hurunui and Waimakariri districts will change from a total fire ban to a restricted season.
North Canterbury principal rural fire officer Bruce Janes said the area was still high-risk for fires.
"In particular there are still dangerous conditions around Omihi and Cheviot and not every permit will be automatically granted.
Janes said if people wanted to light a fire, they should go to www.checkitsalright.nz... to check if they need a permit.

Showcasing their passion for life, Ryman residents from New Zealand and Australia feature in the film. Let’s meet the stars.
“If I hear music, I just want to dance – body seems to just move!” says dancer Audrey, 84. Poet Brian, 86, says “Poetry helps me to question and understand the meaning of life”, followed by a witty “– haven’t worked out what it means yet”.
As their residents blaze their own trails, Ryman matches that pioneering spirit. “Ryman villages offer living choices to suit everyone so that you can live the way you want.”

Now, upskilling, online courses and on-the-job training are all part of making your way up the career ladder.
We want to talk to people who have completed micro-credentials, bitesize qualifications for specific skills.
Perhaps you've pieced together a full qualification by doing online courses, or maybe you've taken a workshop rather than investing in a six-month course. We'd love to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz
