Two Recliner Chairs

Shirley from Glenview

I am ‘paying it forward’ by giving these away. We are short of space and they don’t fit into our lounge. They will need to be picked up as we don’t have the means to deliver. You will need a trailer or small truck or Ute.

We Say, You Say: The Last Lake

Hi Neighbours,

An Auckland trucking company wishes to dump millions of cubic metres of industrial waste in a proposed site in Huntly, close to the only 'swimmable' lake left in the Waikato region. In 2012, a Waikato Regional Council scientist compared the nutrient levels in Waikato lakes to 1316 others globally and found them to be among the worst. This indicator has not shifted in the eight years since.

What do you think about the proposal?

The allergy capital of New Zealand.

Desmond from Dinsdale

Two years ago I ended up on an inhaler due to breathing problems in spring and summer - close to 9 months of the year actually. Back then I was told that "you don't need to have asthma to need an inhaler in the Waikato because "Hamilton is the allergy capital of New Zealand". … View moreTwo years ago I ended up on an inhaler due to breathing problems in spring and summer - close to 9 months of the year actually. Back then I was told that "you don't need to have asthma to need an inhaler in the Waikato because "Hamilton is the allergy capital of New Zealand". Last year I needed the inhaler on and off for a few months - this year I haven't needed it yet though I was stuffed up for two weeks and now, though I'm breathing easily, am occasionally getting sinus headaches. So the question whether it is that much better elsewhere in the country or if there is a way to better manage symptoms in Hamilton?

A Bloke’s Day Out

Why not treat yourself to a bloke’s day out for a grooming WOF? Just be wary of the barbershop – between the bay rum oil, hot towels, banter, and leather chairs, you won’t want to leave!

Why not treat yourself to a bloke’s day out for a grooming WOF? Just be wary of the barbershop – between the bay rum oil, hot towels, banter, and leather chairs, you won’t want to leave!

Bevis, a resident at Ryman’s Anthony Wilding Village, recently received a gentleman’s makeover. The day began at the barbershop where Bevis and his barber Kohl shared plenty of laughs. Next up, a personal stylist helped Bevis select clothes he looked and felt great in. Being pampered isn’t the norm for Bevis but based on his smile, we’re confident he loved every minute.

Hi team! Thank you so much for your support of First Rung, our first podcast!
The launch last week went even better than we'd hoped. I'm over the moon.
I thought I'd drop by to let you know this week's episode, Location, Location, Location, is out now.
Just like the first one, it's packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home. It also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
In episode 2, we talk to a first time buyer who moved from one end of the country to the other for a chance to get on the ladder, hear about apartments as a viable first home option and an expert gives us some tips on how to choose the right lawyer.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
Give episode 2 a listen and let us know what you think - and I hope you're all in to win that crackin' prize pack!
