The weird and wonderful things about online trading

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

A 1950s aircraft fuselage could be yours after a Waiuku resident listed their "old warbird" on Trade Me.

The Royal New Zealand Bristol Freighter flew as part of the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the Vietnam War. It was then purchased and shipped to Whenuapai-Ardmore in 1978 and then sold on to a Waiuku local. The sellers purchased the land at a later date, and thus the plane.

The listing starts at $18,000 and at time of publishing, has been added to almost 900 users' watchlists.

Low levels of digital literacy among staff is a challenge facing many manufacturing businesses, and strengthening those skills is not only essential to meet rapid technological changes in the workplace, it’s vital to increasing productivity.

“As technology progresses and we move further into Industry 4.0, workers must be upskilled to keep pace with new systems and processes, especially older employees who are not digital natives, but who have invaluable experience in their fields,” says Competenz Sector Manager Jahn Vannisselroy

Competenz has developed a new micro-credential to meet the demands brought about by Industry 4.0.

On Tomorrow!!
Harmony Circle – Guest Presenter Sunday 25th July
Rob Robertson – Emotional Fitness Coach

Venue; Community Hall, 2 Alnwick St (next door to Town Hall), Warkworth.
Open at 6.45pm for a 7pm start. $5 Koha – Harmony Circle is non-profit.

Rob is an Emotional Fitness Coach driven to help others grow inner resilience, freedom and self esteem.
This is also his journey of growth which started more than 30 years when he discovered how positive thinking could cover up his anxiety, self doubt and low self esteem. Then 10 years later he got a huge surprise that he had unknowingly suppressed so much anger, doubt and an array of emotions. This started his fascination with Emotional Fitness to discover everything he could about emotions and how to get out of his head to follow his heart, to be fully present.
Rob will share part of this journey as well as practical techniques to integrate negative emotions to grow our emotional range, resilience and capacity to fully understand and sense who we are, leading to higher self esteem, inner freedom and high-performance ‘flow.’

Win a Free Emotional Fitness Coaching package in the evening draw!

Everyone welcome, this is an open group, come along if you can, look forward to seeing you there!
