8:30am to 10am and 4pm to 5:30pm to mark Zagato’s 100th year. Our i-SITE Visitor Centre is open in the Waihinga Centre - if you haven't seen our set up there...come and see us too.

Check out the very popular $7 (250g) options, which are in demand for gift packs (both individual and for clients) plus the family-friendly $20 pack (1L). Some pottles have been heated gently to become liquid and easy-pour; while others have been left to firm up for non-sticky easy-use. The boys are delighted with the generous compliments on the flavour of this honey. Try some . . . and check out the story behind this hard-working bunch of boys!

Bought these brand new before we shifted from Wellington to our Masterton homestead and then found they were a bit short for our family and formal lounges or guestroom. So never used, immaculate condition and beautifully box-pleated and lined.
Measurements are close to but not utterly exact as it's hard to precisely measure already-made-up drapes.
3 x 2050 length x 1100 wide
1 x 2050 length x 1420 wide
1 x 2050 length x 1930 wide
1 x 2050 length x 1460 wide
The photos show the slight satin sheen plus width of the two-tone stripes plus the lovely box-pleats and the immaculate cotton lining. We have something similar hanging in our formal lounge so if you'd like to view please contact me on 0274-579-480.
Keen to sell fast as we're renovating and need to clear out cupboards.
Cheers

We will be completing this repair tonight between 11pm-3am, this will involve water being shut off. Water is expected to be back on at 3am, however if there are any delays we will notify Wellington City Council who will share this information on their social channels.
Noise will be minimal, and affected businesses/residents have been informed.
Full traffic flow will be maintained through the intersection, with existing traffic management in place due to the closed shoulder on the Northern Western corner of the Dixon/Willis Street intersection.

It is recommended that households store at least 10 litres of water at home for drinking.
Watering restrictions are scheduled to take effect from Saturday November 30, and it is possible people are responding to that by soaking their gardens and lawns ahead of that. If people continue to use excessive amounts, restrictions will increase to a total outdoor water use ban and drinking water will be discoloured.
Keep up to date here.

Work is progressing well in Hargreaves Street, as we pour the concrete floor and walls in the chamber, and finish off the pipe installation. We are on track to open up the bottom of Hargreaves Street by the end of the month in preparation for the Wallace Street road closure happening from December 8.
We’ve taken a few photos from around the current work site, as well as inside the chamber at Hargreaves Street so you can see what it looks like under the surface.
Learn more and keep up to date with the project on our website.
