Big Black Cockroaches
Our 20-year-old brick and tiled place we liven in has big black (3.5cm) long coach roaches entering and I can’t find a way to get rid of them, other than the fly swotter. One even crawled onto my brow one night in bed and I was able to reach up quickly and kill it there right on my head. I held it there until it was dead in the mirror with the light on. I never leave food out overnight so as not to encourage them. They do seem to come in from our loo pipes and crawl freely after that. We kill around 3 per week on average. Does anyone here have any ideas on what I might do please, as I would like less of these guys in my life, and they are reputed to carry diseases?

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟
I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Auckland, why are we so excited about a new store? 🚗🛒
I think we’ve all seen the traffic notices and headlines about the new IKEA by now!
So here’s the question: why do we get so excited when a new store opens? Convenience? Curiosity? A reason for a weekend outing? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
