Kids kitchen

Vicki from Blockhouse Bay

Secondhand kids kitchen that my children have grown out of, has lived on our covered deck and is very sturdy but is very faded so would be a good makeover project with some paint or kmart vinyl.
Kitchen only $25 or for $40 I can include a bag full of ikea felt food (again second hand so not perfect condition but lots of it).
Width 1050mm, Height 1020, Depth 320

Pickup only from Blockhouse Bay

Price: $25

The gift of giving …?

Markus from Green Bay

The author of “The Gift of the Magi” is O. Henry, a pseudonym for William Sydney Porter.

“The Gift of the Magi” is a poignant short story about a young couple, Jim and Della, who are deeply in love but financially struggling. With Christmas approaching and limited money, each decides to sacrifice their most prized possession to buy a meaningful gift for the other. Della sells her beautiful long hair to buy a platinum chain for Jim’s watch, while Jim sells his grandfather’s watch to buy a set of combs for Della’s hair. In the end, their love and sacrifice underscore the true spirit of giving during the holiday season.

🤔

I would say the story underscores the stupidity of Xmas gifts … after all, it is not YOUR birthday, so how about donating something to good causes and otherwise enjoying being together?

From National MP--CHRIS BISHOP----'Twas the night before taxes'

Brian from Mount Roskill

’Twas the night before taxes, and all through the nation,
Hard-working Kiwis were still feeling Labour’s inflation.

While their payslips were hidden with care,
They prayed Hipkins and Chloë wouldn’t take their ‘fair’ share.

When out by the Beehive there rose such a shout,
The Greens’ TikTok was not getting enough clout.

“We need more taxes!” Chloë said with a flair,
“For justice! For progress! For… I’ll think of the rest later, I swear.”

Hipkins quickly agreed, as Chloë and the Greens held the key,
He knew he couldn’t win without their guarantee.

But before he could breathe, Te Pāti Māori came with a glare,
Holding a wishlist of taxes that reached mid-air.

And so the trio assembled, a most troublesome sight,
Ready to dream up new taxes till the early midnight.

But no need to worry, National set things right,
We delivered tax relief that finally eased the bite.

And with new roads, schools, and hospitals underway,
Our infrastructure is getting stronger everyday.

Fixing the basics and building the future, as we’ve said,
So every Kiwi family can finally get ahead.
