Russell from Paraparaumu
As pictured. Best before August '25.
The story goes that we ordered some food for our Cavoodle, and they sent us food for a Golden Retriever. Make sense? Nope. We didn't pay for it, so I also have to give it away.
As always, first come, first served. Collection is from Paraparaumu.

Free extendable ladder. It's well over 20 years old, and has paint and crud stains to prove it, but it works. We're getting rid of it as we've replaced it with a newer, more stable one (this one bows/bends too much for my liking when I'm on it).
Pickup from Paraparaumu.

Our daily average maximum temperature was 21.7C. This was also the long-time average and compares with 20.3C in 2024. Every day except one reached 20C, so as usual it was definitely a summer month.

This was also the long-time average and compares with 20.3C in 2024. Every day except one reached 20C, so as usual it was definitely a summer month. Our overall mean temperature of 17.4C was the warmest in Central NZ, with the higher-maximum eastern Blenheim and Masterton at the bottom of the table due to their cold nights.
February’s dry weather continued through March, with only a few showers in the third week amounting to around 24mm, half the average. The combined rainfall for the two months was 34mm only 30 percent of average.
March sunshine equivalent to17 days was slightly below average with cloud frequent at both ends of the day, unlike February that was particularly sunny.
In April we can still expect some summery weather, but with an average temperature of around 19C. Also, the end of daylight saving sees a return to brighter, warmer mornings, and It won’t be as dark again until early June, by which time it will be only couple weeks before the days begin to lengthen again.
The thunderhead over Otaki may have delivered a brief shower in the third week.
