Hey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?
We're looking into ways we can all keep these costs down for a story on Homed and would love to hear from you if you have particularly large or small bills.… View moreHey neighbours, It's been a long hard winter and for many, power bills have been going through the roof. Have you been affected?
We're looking into ways we can all keep these costs down for a story on Homed and would love to hear from you if you have particularly large or small bills.
Do your power bills come in way higher than your friends and family? Do you know why, or does the amount always take you by surprise? Maybe, like the family who created an effective solar panel heater out of drink cans, or the blogger who enjoys free power generated by a converted washing machine, you've found a creative way to minimise your bills. If so, how do you do it?
Whether your bills are high and you're looking for ways to reduce them, or you have some secrets to low power bills that you're willing to share, we'd love to hear from you. Leave a message in the comments, or email homed@stuff.co.nz.

The confronting truth of what happened in our recent past is something New Zealanders have to reckon with. When the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, Māori owned more than 66 million acres of land. By 1975, almost 97 per cent had been sold or taken.

We are having a general clear out, so there's furniture (couch, dressers, bedside tables), books, musical scores, clothes, nick-knacks, jewellery, toys, scentsy display table stock (I was a consultant) - if you aren't sure what scentsy is give it a quick google.

The move comes after much public debate on the appropriateness of firearms being brought into schools, including when soldiers taught children as young as nine how to assemble and shoot assault rifles at a leadership exercise in Palmerston North last year. However students can still use firearms as part of shooting clubs and competitions. Click here to read the full article and guidelines.
So what do you think of the new rules? Are you for or against them?

The Predator Free Peninsula team has been giving out free traps in our suburbs and one of our regular visiting families has got on board with so much enthusiasm that they offered to maintain our traps here at the centre.
Peanut butter prep happened today and a placement of 4 traps around the property has started!
If you would like your own trap and live on the Peninsula then please check out their website www.pfw.org.nz... and get in touch with them directly.
Hope all is well and that the early rise of spring bulbs are putting a smile on your face. I sure am happy about it!
