Screen wiper trap
I had my car wind screen repaired by Smith and Smith in Glenfield last week. They sent me a txt saying "after testing your wipers I can see that they are due to be changed soon as they are starting to leaving streak marks...." I fell into the trap and agreed. When I got home I noticed that the driver side wipers had been replaced as part of a service and WOF less than 3 weeks before. So, they said that a brand new wiper needs replacing. When I rang them up, they didn't want a bar of refunding me at least 1 wiper. So watch out for this trap.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
