Don’t Let Your Mattress Turn Into a Moving Monster!
Hey neighbours,
Moving house? Don’t wrestle with your mattress like it’s a wild animal! Big, awkward, and easy to damage, it needs a little strategy - and maybe a friend or two.
Top tips to move like a pro:
1. Measure & clear your path - no doorway dramas.
2. Grab a buddy - teamwork makes it a breeze.
3. Lift smart - bend your knees, not your back!
4. Wrap it up - blankets, plastic, or cardboard protect it along the way.

Some Choice News!
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!
