Kia ora,
I'm looking for an old-style double-boiler to use for melting chocolate and wax (not together). My mother had one that had one pot fitting into the top of the other. The bottom pot was for water and the top for whatever you wanted to were melting. I've been looking for ages in … View moreKia ora,
I'm looking for an old-style double-boiler to use for melting chocolate and wax (not together). My mother had one that had one pot fitting into the top of the other. The bottom pot was for water and the top for whatever you wanted to were melting. I've been looking for ages in second hand stores and not seen anything like it or anything else that will work. Does anyone have one they're not using any more?
Many thanks.
A proposal to transform Trafalgar St into a more pedestrian-friendly space stalled following a Nelson City Council meeting on Wednesday and Thursday.

Staff recommended the status quo be maintained as public opinion on the subject was evenly split at both ends of the spectrum.
After a long and sometimes heated debate on Thursday, a compromise option was reached, which would delay any future work until at least the 2021/2022 financial year.

Responders to an NZTA survey have shown a preference for priority lanes (on Rocks Rd, Rutherford Rd, and Waimea Rd) to help ease Nelson's traffic congestion issues - ahead of a new inland route or a widening of Rocks Rd to include two lanes each way.

However, Nelson MP Nick Smith says the survey was a "compromised response", as it was weighted towards people living near the city centre and not people who are also affected but live further afield.

Tom Hanks absolutely shines as he transforms into the beloved children's show star in a role his career has been perhaps always leading to. Hanks embodies all that is Fred Rogers, from his delicate mannerism to beautifully authentic warmth with others. Hanks pulls at your heartstrings with every word uttered during the film's run.
A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood is based on a true life story about the relationship that develops between Fred Rogers and a cynical reporter who is loath to interview him for a piece on American heroes.
In the movie, the reporter is Lloyd Vogel (Matthew Rhys) who gives an amazing performance. Through his interactions with Fred Rogers (Tom Hanks), Vogel begins to understand that part of him is broken. The healing process begins as their friendship develops and you see Fred Rogers teaching him to understand, accept and voice his emotions and feelings. It is beautiful.Tom Hanks is masterful in this role at bringing out the transformation of his friend.
