- Tips for small laundries
Open shelves make everything easily accessible and save on cupboard door clearance space.
Front-loading appliances allow for more bench space and are more water-efficient.
If you can, build storage all the way to the ceiling to maximise your use of space.
“Fold-out ironing boards might seem clever but it’s nicer to be able to move the ironing board around, eg to a warmer part of the house in winter,” says Lucy Sargent from Pocketspace Interiors. Install a tall, skinny cupboard or recessed shelf for your ironing board, and don’t forget a designated shelf or cubby for the iron.
A mirrored splashback reflects light and makes small spaces feel larger. Glossy cupboard finishes have the same effect.
- A few space-saving extras
A rail for hanging damp or ironed clothes.
A suspended laundry rack to fully utilise spare ceiling space.
A pull-out shelf for resting the laundry basket on, or for folding clothes.
Pull-out hampers for easy dumping and sorting of clothes.
Under-shelf storage to make use of every centimetre of space.

It’s about the 25th time he’s gone from home since I moved here in May 19. Each time he’s gone walk-about he’s headed back to his old stomping ground around Pinehill Cres / Evergreen Cres in Trentham but he hasn’t been spotted there this time so may have gone somewhere else.
He’s quite chilled, he doesn’t meow much, tends to squeak more than meow and doesn’t like to be picked up but does get attracted to cat food when he’s hungry. He’s a big fluffy cat with no collar but is micro-chipped. Please text or call me on 021 1772833 if you see him. Thanks.
Here's some good food for thought as we head into the weekend.

The strike is the first time all teachers in the compulsory schooling sector have taken strike action simultaneously.

Poor bladder control is not a general topic of conversation. Many are embarrassed to talk about it or seek advice.

We want to change that and get people talking about it. After all, 1 in 2 people are suffering from it right now.
UROX has been developed to effectively assist bladder control. Designed for both men and women, it works by supporting the muscle tone and tissue strength of the bladder, pelvic floor, sphincter and surrounding area.
Trial participants in our latest trial consumed 2 capsules for 2 months with the following statistically significant results:
-Total average daytime urinary frequency returned to normal (less than 8 times a day)
-Nocturia (getting out of bed at night for the toilet) was halved
-Less urgency
-Reductions in bladder accidents
-Significant reductions, even elimination, in the need for incontinent pads and padded underwear
