This one could be a bit tricky. Many Wellingtonians see this on a daily basis but it has changed greatly in appearance over the years.
Succulent with lots of babies in plastic terracotta pot. Easy grow and attractive pot plants.
Thanks for looking.

"Hi my name is Dimple and I have been in foster care while the canine team got to know me. I have come from a very difficult background, so I am looking for a very special home, without children, other dogs or small animals. I can be very wary of people and take time to bond with them, but once bonded I can be very smoochy. I can be very reactive while on a walk so will need a home that has experience with reactive dogs and will teach me through positive reinforcement that not everything is scary.
My foster mum has done a lot of work in socialising me with other dogs but I still have a long way to go. I am not keen on visiting dog parks or similar environments. I can be very affectionate, fun and quite the character once I'm comfortable in my space. I am toilet trained, and I do come with a medical waiver that my new home would be made aware of. If you are keen for a dog who you can put in the extra work with training then contact the canine team to learn more about me and set up a meeting if you seem like a good match!"

We have a bonus Pet of the Day this week - Paschal Moses.
He belonged to Margaret Stevenson-Wright and his picture arrived with the following message.
"Given that my boy cat of 16.5 years will not see another Christmas – we decided to feature him on our Christmas greetings this year."

"Continuing with the Christmas theme, this seems like a face only a mother could love. Like somehow evolution decided to put the turkey's guts on the outside of his neck, and what even is that dangly appendix bit between his eyes? Wiki says the longer your snood the more likely you are to successfully mate. No wonder he looks grumpy with all that going on on his face (although that could also be the time of year - December and American accents are known to cause extreme stress to his species). Male turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) in full sail. Staglands."
This old trunk is solid and heavy with grip handles at each end.
Measurements. Depth 42cms, height 32cms and width 56cms.
The label inside says it was used for putting radio transmitting and receiving equipment in. Was used in the Navy department, and made in New York USA.

I would think it would be pretty fireproof to store valuables in. It has done a lot of hard work but still strong and solid.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Christmas pressie maybe.
Dwarf blue Agapantha in flower. Well established.
A hardy plant that can withstand the dry.

Hi all. While driving into town at lunchtime today, in 28 deg, I was horrified to see people out walking their dogs.
Please leave the poor creatures at home in the cool.

Please leave the poor creatures at home in the cool.
Take them for a walk either early morning or later in the evening when it's much cooler.
Take YOUR shoes off and see how far YOU can walk; I can guarantee you won't get far.
One poor dog (black at that) was trying desperately to get shade under a hedge but his owner just 'yanked' him out to carry on.
What???
Come on people, think about it...
