Poll: Is losing your bin a fair way to stop recycling mistakes?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whakatāne District Council plans to crack down on residents recycling mistakes with a "three-strikes" rule - contaminate your bin three times and you could lose it for three months.

The goal? Less landfill, more proper recycling.

The struggle is real; not enough energy, and no motivation to actually stick with your good intentions to look after yourself better.
Or worse: no idea where to start to support yourself naturally and spending a significant amount on 'quick-fixes' that just don't work for you.
A naturopathic consultation is holistic, specific to your exact needs, and can help you greatly to improve those aspects of your wellness you are struggling with, and more. Think exhaustion, burnout, hormonal imbalance, digestive issues, headaches, PMS, PMDD, per-menopause.
If you are looking for realistic and natural support,

VIOLIN, Case and Bow - Handcrafted in NP

Joel from Brooklands - Vogeltown

The sound of factory violins can deter students from wanting to play. Rekindle the passion with an affordable, handcrafted instrument and bow direct from the artisan.

I make string instruments, and have this player package for sale.
The violin and bow are both to my own design.
VIOLIN:
Has deep arching for a mellow tone.
Maple backs, sides and neck, with spruce face. Fingerboards, tailpieces and chins for each instrument are cut from the same pieces of Rimu.
Strings are always Pirastro Tonica (is easier for me to compare tone between instruments).
Note that each instrument has a unique purfling design, and the back of each scroll is carved with a Kowhai motif.
Varnish is traditional shellac and rosin combination.
The construction history and details of each instrument can be found on my website
"violinsbyjoel.blogspot.com...

BOW: Also to my own design - a geniune J. Dodd bow, just not the London maker! I cut it from a piece of upcycled Rimu, and I used American white oak for the frog with real Mother of Pearl slider. The tip plate is bone.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding the sale. Prices are negotiable, but please be mindful that these are not knocked out in a factory - each is hand crafted by myself.
