I have seen the frame turned upside down and netting placed around and used for gardens. If anyone wants to give it a try it is up for free. You just need to take the frame, we are getting rid of the rest. Must be able to pick up by Friday. Or it is off to the dump. 😁 approx size I think 16 foot round tramp. Also have lots of plastic seedling pungent pots. Free to a good home. First in first serve. 😁

McDonald's staff at two Waikato restaurants were forced to hide in safe rooms and bathrooms after robbers struck on Friday. McDonald's on Queen St in Cambridge was the first to be robbed by several offenders at 3.55am.

A short time later what's believed to be the same assailants again smashed their way into the McDonald's restaurant on Horsham Downs Rd in Rototuna. It appears several vehicle loads of offenders were involved in the incident.

Anyone with information which may be of use to police in these investigations to contact Hamilton police on 07 858 6200. Police are at the robbery scenes this morning and scene examinations are underway. Alternatively, people can call Crimestoppers anonymously via 0800 555 111. Read more here.
