Seeking home
3 bedroom home, with garage, garden and preferably fireplace, needed in HNHS school zone (preferably within biking or walking distance). Hopefully before winter.
Needs to be suitable for a cat (house trained ratter).
Farm cottage type of property well suited.
Doesn’t have to be perfect, as long as it’s warm, dry and has all necessary services. And reasonable rent. I’m not looking to pay for someone else’s second home, or be their income source, just needing a home for me and mine, at least until he finishes high school (he starts this year). I don’t want to have to uproot him again. I just want to give him a home he can feel secure in, until he’s ready to go off on his own.
If you have a property that is coming available for rent, please let me know. I have excellent references. I also handle all basic maintenance myself and I have my own carpet shampooer.
CAROLS ON THE GREEN
This afternoon from 4 - 6 pm. Please leave 5 car parks free on both sides at the Domain side of the car park. Bring folding chairs and/or blanket and picnic basket and enjoy the afternoon with family and friends.
POTTING MIX QUALITY
If, like me, you are an experienced and avid gardener you know how frustrating it is when those beautiful seedlings recently purchased fail to thrive. Have you ever considered it may not be your fault, you've done all the right things but it may be the new bag of potting mix you bought to plant them in . Have you ever complained to the garden centre? My recent experience showed the blatantly obvious difference between brands. The recently purchased product was nothing more than raw compost, whereas the previous product was a good mix and made the plants thrive. I was the only one to complain, there could not possibly be a problem with the product as they sell pallet loads of it........ Your comments would be appreciated.
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
