Retired handy man maybe???

Sarah from Waltham

I'm wondering if anyone knows anybody that could help an elderly friend of mine.
She lives in Waddington (Darfield, Shiefield way) and has bought a wooden shed.
She has a bit of a concrete pad, but it probably needs extending.
The shed sides and roof are basically a piece each. Has plans with it.
She also needs a clothes line put in, has the poles etc, just needs holes dug and filled with concrete.
She's on a pension, so can't afford alot, but really needs the shed for her winter firewood.
Anyone know anyone out that way, or who would be willing to travel out there to help her.
Shed plans, photos etc can be provided for means of a quote etc.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
