Kia ora,

I purchased a Newline 910mm Black Powder Coated Channel Drain Kit for our new build to find it was the wrong one. It was purchased brand new and has only been taken out of its box once. Upon inspection, we realised it was incorrect! As it was purchased a couple of months ago, Newline and Mico plumbing have refused to restock it.

This product retails for anywhere over $470. I'm looking at recuperating some of the costs.

Dimensions for the Channel Drain are:
910 x 70 x 23
The waste is offset 530 from left, 380 from right.

This Channel Drain allows for tile inserts.

Also included with Channel Drain Kit:
Newline flange (leak proof 80mm outlet)
80x2 10mm PVC pipe
80-50 floor waste gully
And Profinish packers

For detailed information on the Channel Drain and its constituent parts, see the PDF attached below.

I am happy to deliver and I will accept bank transfer or cash.

Message me if you wish to discuss price.

I am also selling a 810mm Newline Black Powder Coated Channel Drain for $360.

Price: $380

Missing ducks

Sophie from Tawa

Hi neighbours,

We've noticed that ducks have been missing from the neighborhood.
There were two resting on the public lawn last night, and one went missing this morning. On the other occasion, there were ducks feather everywhere, and the two regular visiting ducks never shown up again.

Hi neighbours,

We've noticed that ducks have been missing from the neighborhood.
There were two resting on the public lawn last night, and one went missing this morning. On the other occasion, there were ducks feather everywhere, and the two regular visiting ducks never shown up again.
We used to enjoy seeing the ducks, and sometimes they bring little ducklings. But now we're really concerned that they'd be killed.
Is it illegal to kill wild ducks? Can I report this to any authorities?
