I have a very old (vintage) singer sewing machine to give away. Unfortunately it's fairly rusted so it would need a bit of work to refurbish but it could be used for parts. It has a number of presser feet with it. Come and pick it up from Charlcott St, near wairakei Rd.
The consultation period is open until Sunday 14 October 2018.
There are consultation events at a place near you - please refer link.
The website also provides answers to FAQs as well the different ways one can make a submission.

Here is some tips about Asparagus you might find useful.
If this news motivates you to rush out and buy some asparagus, here are some tips to make your experience even better:
1. Choose firm, crisp spears that don’t look dry or droopy. Fresh asparagus is squeaky when the stalks rub together.
2. Thin stems tend to be more tender but thick spears have a longer shelf life.
3. You can store asparagus in a jar with a little water (2cm) at the bottom, a bit like flowers. Or wrap them in a plastic bag and store in the fridge.
4. Asparagus can be eaten raw, fried, chargrilled, steamed, microwaved or baked.
5. Apart from baking, most cooking methods for asparagus will take just a few minutes.

During five days over the school holidays last year, 6-10 October 2017, 15 lives were lost on our roads. The total deaths for the whole month was 32. “If the same thing happens this year, we are going to have 32 people die in October. Who is it going to be, you, a member of your family, a friend, or one of your colleagues?” says Sandra Venables, Assistant Commissioner for Road Policing.
NZ Transport Agency acting Director Safety and Environment Lisa Rossiter agrees. “If you’re going away with your family these school holidays, ensure you are well rested before you set off, and ensure your focus is driving safely on the roads.
“Watch your speed and following distances, make sure you’re driving fresh and alert, don’t get distracted by the kids in the back or by your phone, and make sure everyone is wearing their seatbelt"
