Give yourself a break from laundry duty tomorrow night! 💧
👉 We'll be cleaning one of the main pipes that transports water from Turitea into the city tomorrow night (Tuesday 20 August).
👉 We've postponed this a couple of times due to river conditions not being right, but we're now good to go after the rain over the weekend.
We're encouraging everyone to have a night off washing your clothes after 9pm, while our team complete the cleaning. Need to do laundry? Don't stress, the water's expected to be back to normal by 9 am Wednesday (21 August). ☺️
👉 On Wednesday, morning you might notice some discoloured water when we reconnect the water supply. If this happens, run your taps for a few minutes or until the water runs clear.
👉 If your water doesn't run clear after a few minutes, please ring our Call Centre on 06 356 8199 and let them know so we can help.
👉For more info about the work being done, visit:

🚰 If you live in Kelvin Grove, Ashhurst, Longburn or Bunnythorpe, this won't affect you, as your area has a separate water supply.
✨ No cleaning agent is used during the process – instead, a giant sponge (like in the picture below) is inserted into the pipe at the treatment plant and water pressure pushes it through the pipe until it gets to the river. We do this every year. ✨
Hope that someone has a sky dish, or a larger 90cm satellite dish that is looking for a new home? Look forward to hearing from you if you are able to help me?
Thanks

The hospital pharmacy had shut as it was 6pm. The kind Asian couple happily served us even though it meant delaying their own return home with their two little children. Their warmth and kindness is very much appreciated.
I am so excited. Admittedly, my insurance has gone up by over $100 a month, along with rates, power and everything else, but I'll be fine, because I just got my pension under the new lower tax regime, and hear this -- I am getting 48 cents a week more! Now, if I invested that at 3.5% for 10 … View moreI am so excited.
