They'll need a clean as they've been in my garage for nearly 2 years, so a bit dusty.

Suit medium/large breed. These are pricey from Animates, but yours for free. I've run it through the wash. It still smells a bit musty so is fine for a shed, out-house or whatever. Pickup from Paraparaumu.

Mentors work alongside whānau to increase confidence and skills in personal money management and advocate with and for clients. Cat enjoys delivering online and face-to-face workshops which provide opportunities to normalise money conversations and encourages people to make time to consider their financial well-being.
Cat is also an independent financial well-being coach, educator and indigenous life coach at Restore Wellness Network. She is a published writer and currently in the process of writing her first non-fiction book: 'A financial self-care guide for women in Aotearoa.'

My name is Annette. I have a therapy practice called The Inner Path. People come to see me because they want to be happy, free and at peace.
So we inquire into the stuff that gets in the way. The overthinking, overeating, overdrinking, people pleasing, addictions, traumas, phobias and other old patterns set up when young in order to survive.
I use a variety of skilful means such as deep listening, inquiry, CBT, Psychology, NLP, psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy.
All with compassion, no judgement and no agenda on my part.
Take a look at my website and see if I can help you.

Our daily average maximum temperature was 14.5C, equalling the longtime average, and a degree warmer than August 2023. This was also an increase of a degree on July ― and that along with relatively warmer nights probably resulted in the onset of an early spring. This saw many of the classic spring plants and shrubs, including kowhai, flowering well before the end of the month. Also, with an overall mean temperature of 11.4C, we were the warmest place in central New Zealand.
The equivalent of 13.5 sunny days was again two fewer than average. However, it was an abundance of rain that August will likely be remembered, ending months of below average rainfall. Following two weeks of almost no rain we had a two-week wet spell, with two episodes of over 50mm within a week, and along with frequent squally showers we reached a monthly total of 200mm. (The historic average rainfall for August is around 80mm). However, this amount is not uncommon, with four similar monthly totals of around 200mm in August in 2022, and most recently in April 2023. However, these storms are fairly minor compared to those experienced in northern and eastern North Island regions in recent years.
We can expect September to be a blustery month with around a 1.5 degree increase in temperatures and rainfall of around 70mm.
