4 weeks to go

Denise from Marewa

On this day, in 4 weeks time, it will be The Gatsby Picnic and the fashion competitions at the Soundshell. Both are free events. There are even make up and nail styles as well as hair styles that are particular to the 1920s and 1930s. Today's post is for nails. Being on a very tight budget, I got the nail polish, some tape (didn't have any in the house) and the reinforcements from the 1-2-3 shop in Marewa. They have quite a few useful bits and bobs for preparing your Art Deco look.

I'd seen this look before and I've had my first attempt. While I don't particularly like it, it is handy in that I normally can chip my polish just sneezing. I've managed and whole day, including doing the dishes and there is no damage yet.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Undelivered parcel.

Neil from Taradale

Hi There,
Yesterday 29 April 2024 by tracking information I was meant to have a parcel delivered to my address in Jervoistown but it never arrived. Would anyone have it by mistake perhaps or can anyone help.
The DAI Post tracking number was CTEE552125.
Many thanks,
