Clearing out some of our Christmas stuff. This is a large pottery snowman (50cm tall). He's in excellent condition as he gets bubble wrapped every year. His lamp has a tea-light holder which we've never used. Pick-up in Greytown.
Kiwis have always had a soft spot for our animal friends. With so many unique and quirky birds and marine species calling Aotearoa home, it’s only natural that we feel a deep drive to protect them 🐧🦭

These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.
If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into the project?
And maybe the bigger question — should we be looking at doing the same kind of thing for wildlife refuges on our main islands too?

Ali will pull back the curtain on a life lived publicly – from what it was like to announce the death of Princess Diana with no autocue, calling out Women’s Day magazine, being made redundant five times and why she regrets not walking out on Paul Henry live on air…
Ali is a woman who has learnt to stand up for herself. Her memoir, No Words for This, is powerful, raw and beautifully written.
It’s one hell of a story, and we think you’ll find her totally inspiring.
Join us at The Royal Hotel, Featherston for what is sure to be a fascinating conversation with fellow journalist, Melody Thomas.
Ali's book, No Words for This, will be available to buy and have signed after the event.
7pm Friday 14th November at The Royal Hotel, Featherston

This madness it has to stop as it has nothing to do with NZ but for Guy Fawkes who was trying to blow up the parliament in London. I hope that our government stops the private sales of fireworks to protect our animals and give our firefighters a rest from unwanted fires.
