Treadle sewing machine

Sally from Nawton

I am looking for a working Treadle sewing machine. It's not common anymore . Well, I am from old school girl and I only familiar with this machine. I am looking for it as I would like to start sewing again which I used to do many years ago. I had tried using the new sewing machine which is electric and I stuffed up the sewing machine. I has been looking for it on trademe and FB but either they are out of Hamilton , some are connected to electric and some doesn't work or need repairing. So if anyone knows of anyone selling or getting rid, please consider my request..thank you

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
