Pair of wooden gates ($80/pair) plus old fence palings (free) for removal
Solidly made wooden gates 1500mm high - left hand gate 1135mm wide and right hand gate 1700mm wide. Rubber wheel on wider gate, galv hinges, drop bolts both gates plus new galv striker type latch. Made approx 14 months ago with new framing timber and recycled palings from old gates and fence. Wanting $80 for the pair, well worth the money.
The rest of the existing fence is free for the taking. Used palings - there's approx 88 at 1500mm high x 150mm wide x 15mm thick and they've still got some life in them if you like rustic and free. There's probably recoverable post and rail timber in there as well. Have a part 10 litre pail of fence paint/stain to match the dark colour that's free with the lot as well.
Need to get the fence removed by the 29th of January. I'm around for the removal with power tools etc if anything needs cutting up. We're in the inner city behind the District Court Building. Call Pete on 021-755705.
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.

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!
