Philips Quadrante Senseo Coffee machine
This machine is in excellent order. It is part of an estate and as I already have a ( less fancy ) Senseo that is still going strong after 10 years, I am selling this one. It works with Senseo pods ( biodegrable filter paper) available online and from Dutch shops. The coffee is very nice indeed. If you like you can buy a bag of 36 pods off me for $9.
The machine is very simple to operate and comes with 1 and 2 cup podholders, a pod that you can fill with your own ground coffee ( which was bought as an extra) and the 2 original glass Senseo Quadrante cups.
I saw an EBay advert yesterday ( photo) where a Quadrante is offered for the rather exaggerated price of over NZ$ 600 !
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
