Two large pieces of cloth, working heater, pair of Puma sneakers, and (a partridge in a pear tree) sunshade
Our new mattress and topper came wrapped in these really large pieces of opaque cloth. Can't think of a use for them......perhaps a drop cloth for a painting project, curtains for a sleepout?
Also working heater (checked by electrician)
Pair of men's size 42 Puma sneakers (fair condition)
Big sunshade (158 cm x 110 cm), almost new, but 1 pole is split and the top is torn at the base...maybe you know how to repair nylon or can repurpose poles?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
