I am a semi retired very careful and competent ex builder/ handyman, who does not touch electrics,plumbing,gas, need a registered person, also no roof work.... To be totally transparent, the customer( you) pays for the material so no 20% mark up the rate is a family rate so I think very fair. for all, Available only Friday,Saturday, FMI why not give me a call.

Throughout the late 19th and early-mid 20th-Centuries, New Zealand newspaper readers could regularly find the stories of early settlers memorialised in extended obituaries, a genre reserved for the commemoration of “Old Colonists”.
These columns recorded both the ordinary and remarkable individuals who collectively comprised the foundational generation of settlers. Yet the category of Old Colonist clearly designated a distinction between present generations and the gradually fading frontier experiences of these foundational figures.
In this HeritageTalk, Research Librarian Liam Appleton asks what these efforts to remember the Old Colonists might tell us about Pakeha New Zealanders understanding of themselves amidst an increasingly developing and urbanised country.

With public celebrations taking place following the All Blacks (men's) Rugby World Cup wins (2011 & 2015) as well as parades for the America's cup team, do you think similar celebration plans are needed for our winning Black Ferns women?
