Hi all, looking for a piece of flexible reinforcement mesh. Just want to drag it around the paddock that we are trying to flatten before we seed it. Has anyone got a piece lying around doing nothing they want to get rid of?

"I was suspicious of the establishment at the time. You need to understand, I had grown up a welfare-dependent "half-caste" (I hate that term) boy living with his mother, escaping from a life of alcohol, crime and a level of violence that I would not tolerate for my daughters. An under-achiever, I was expelled from two secondary schools. I feel I had a reason to be angry at "the system".
"Then I became a father. It changed my life. I needed to be a responsible adult caring for a son, then a daughter – eventually seven children. We were young parents and wanted to do only the best for these precious beings.
"I read the pamphlet. It described "studies" in the Netherlands into communities that didn't look like mine, but I took little persuasion. I stated our second child, our little daughter Te Miringa, would not be immunised.
"At the time my wife Tracy was working as a nurse at the local medical centre and immunising children daily. Yet this was my protest against the establishment that I so mistrusted.
"Fifteen months later, we had a scare. Te Miringa became unwell with high fever and a body rash and the doctors were concerned as there was a measles outbreak locally. And I realised the information from the Netherlands did not reflect my reality.
"We got Te Miringa immunised."

What does this mean for you?? Well there are many safety applications for sole workers out and about but also if you are reliant on a health alarm in the house and feel house bound these watches will take that worry away. Its as simple as pushing a button on the watch and you'll be connected through to a 24/7 contact centre.. I've had a demo today and was blown away by it.
Tomorrow we are having Hawkes Bays first live demonstration of this product.
Location: The hall at the rear of St Lukes Church - Te Mata road
Time: Presentation will start at 10 but come along earlier for a cup of tea.
If you're interested but can't make it we'll be having demonstrations at our Expo in September also. If you would like more info about this then let me know and I can put you on a list to be the first to get a brochure when they become available.
