Weekly Grey Lynn Repair Café, on this Saturday 11-2

Amanda from Grey Lynn

Hi from Repair & Share and the Auckland Library of Tools!
www.aucklandlibraryoftools.com...

This week we welcome the incredibly talented artist Jan Alldritt-Miller to the team! She is with us this Saturday August 24th, offering paint touch-ups on your old watercolor, acrylic or oil paintings. She's eager to see what you've got, so bring in granny's old painting for a little refresh!
(No repairs of frames, canvas, or damaged paper. No removals of mould or watermarks, though if minor she can disguise them with paint!)
Please bring your paintings in before 1:00 for a chance at a touch-up.

EDIT: We previously announced electrical appliance repairs, however our electrician will not be with us this Saturday due to illness. We still offer repairs in sewing, wood, general, and small electronics. Stay tuned for our next electrician announcement!

Aucklanders, our weekly rubbish collections are staying after councillors voted to scrap a proposed trial of fortnightly pick-ups.

We want to hear from you: would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?

Keen for the details? Read up about the scrapped collection trial here.
