Metal detecting

Hi all,
My daughter Tessa loves history and research. She also metal detects. She is wondering if anyone with a older property would allow her to come and detect around your home?
Thanks

Poll: Should fireworks be banned?

The Team from ACC New Zealand

Setting off fireworks has become an annual Kiwi backyard tradition, and it’s almost time to break out the sparklers again.

However, critics say they’re dangerous and people are injured by them every year. Fans, on the other hand, argue that all fun involves some level of risk, it just needs to be managed safely.

Last year, we saw a 23% drop in the number of fireworks-related injury claims (171 claims across 2017 versus 223 across 2016). What do you think? Should personal fireworks be banned? Click here for advice on how to use fireworks responsibly.

Kmart + Warehouse have a very small/disappointing selection + nothing for anyone over 6yrs (+ I asked staff) - unless you're a dog, in which case there are about 10 choices...!
