The downsides appear to be land supply, red-tape with council and difficulty getting lending from banks. If you're willing to share your experience - good or bad - email kelly.dennett@stuff.co.nz, otherwise leave a comment. Is there an aspect of transportable housing you'd like us to enquire about for you?

As students adjusted to the shift in their educational environment, many schools were ill-prepared to move to quickly to online learning. Schools such as St Peter’s in Cambridge were readily prepared for a seamless transfer between classroom and digital learning.
With each student ready to use online platforms such as Google Classroom and Hangouts, a streamlined shift was enabled as soon as the lockdown occurred.
Find out why more families are choosing St Peter’s at our Open Day on 12 March.
Gazpacho is the classic chilled soup of Spain. It combines ripe tomatoes with cucumber, red and green capsicum, Sherry vinegar and a pinch of chilli. Perfect for a hot, sunny day. Prepared by our Level 3 Foundation chefs.
Is anyone collecting these locally for fundraising. Sadly my contact has stopped and I have a good collection sitting here.
Happy to drop off to you
Anyone knows where I can get a hold of one or two metal drums (like the 110 litre drum).

This cat has been visiting my house (Abbotts way) for the last week during nighttime, he eats our cat’s food and sleeps inside. He is very friendly to people which makes me think he has a home but he’s lost.
We took him to the vet but he hasn’t a microchip. If you know this cat please let me know x thanks 🙏🙏

The 50cm koru sculpture was swiped from her garden last week.
Officers have appealed to the public for help.
"We understand it can have a devastating impact, especially when sentimental items or things which mean a lot to you and your loved ones are stolen," police said.
"We want to help return it (the statue) to her and her family."

I had gotten them voluntary myself off years ago to stop it spreading but it has had returned again. don't we hate them ! Love to have someone who has knowledge of getting rid of them, of course I had googled how to get rid of them but I am not in good form now. I so passionately hate them... it's at 31 Eldon Road. the owners are just housing NZ tenants not savvy in plant weeds knowledge ... arrgh. They knew but they were too lazy. If I don't get any reply here, I will take further action later this week.

The actual date of Matariki will move but is expected to always fall on a Friday or Monday.
The first day off will be Friday June 24 in 2022.
Government advice suggests the new Matariki public holiday will cost businesses between $377 - $448 million.
But that advice does not include any potential economic benefits from the new public holiday, set to be introduced from next year.
The estimated cost has come under fire from ACT leader David Seymour who said the public holiday amounted to a tax on business.
Seymour suggested that the Government get rid of another public holiday to make way for Matariki.

These lovely old (1950’s) matching pair of solid oak bed frames are delightful. Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds.

Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds. Potential to paint and make more modern or keep in original style. Excellent condition and they are made from solid wood and with heavy steel runners.
We had them for our kids and now they’re grown up, so no need anymore. We made the slats ourselves from old decking wood (these would originally have had wire sprung bases attached to the steel runners) and the slats worked well. All that’s needed is a mattress on the top. (We have 1 very old mattress available, which if you want you can have for free).
Prefer to sell as pair for $100 but would consider selling separately for $65 each.
Approx. Dimensions (inside)
910 mm Width
1900 mm Length
Pick up in Mount Eden. They are dismantled now, so easy to transport in a car.
