I have 5 Hereford-dairy cross heifers that are about 8-9 months old for sale. A farmer friend estimated them around 200kg, but I would not know. They have been raised on a lifestyle block so are friendly, but not tame. They will follow me when I call them to change paddocks. They are Polled … View moreI have 5 Hereford-dairy cross heifers that are about 8-9 months old for sale. A farmer friend estimated them around 200kg, but I would not know. They have been raised on a lifestyle block so are friendly, but not tame. They will follow me when I call them to change paddocks. They are Polled Hereford, so no horns.
I would like to sell 2 before the winter, but would consider selling 3. My farmer friend said they should be worth around $700.
I do not have a loading ramp, but can put them in the calf shed and we can load up a ramp on a trailer from there.
Location is near Maungatapere.

2019 in Northland should be a better year for our disabled, just thinking back to the end of 2018 and the International Day of Persons with Disabilities event at the canopy bridge in Whangarei

I know yes for the first hour when the VIPs were there, there was some excitement, the wheelchair races did not last long the track quickly abandoned
The music was too loud, what about those that have voice or hearing disabilities how are they going to communicate with loud music. We want music for sure but they need to take breaks and turn it down
Boring table after table of brochures, little pockets of good things happening here and there but mostly brochures. It is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
I think we need a rethink here we need others to run the show and inject some excitement into it make it a celebration
More effort needs to go into thinking about how we can cater for disabled people using technology, yes I know there were new wheelchairs to see.
But I could see some disabled having a ball on a space invader machine from the 80s which used joysticks.
What about our local creators such as CTN, what can be remotely controlled by a joystick and entertain people with different disabilities can a wheelchair be controlled remotely, what about visual arts or virtual reality a disabled person could feel like they are in another world,
Really let us make it something more than a place to get brochures about disability.
I certainly want to be involved in organising this in 2019.
The brainstorming should start now, our day is only 10 months away
Has a little space for that awkward item

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.
The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.
They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.
What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Better still, they’re a snap to make, especially if you have ready-grated tasty and parmesan cheese from Mainland in the fridge.
For the more adventurous eaters, finish each muffin with a little wedge of Brie, Noble or Blue cheese. You might not be able to resist sneaking a couple for your own lunch!

Pink, Trumpet Shaped Blooms, nicknamed a Naked Lady; Spring foliage dies back and requires no summer water; The flower stalk will emerge before the leaves, blooming in August or September. These bulbs multiply well and are very easy care. Great as a cut flower. Pick up in Kamo. The photo is not mine but one off the internet to show what the flowers are like. All have been collected and are gone now.
