To Ōtautahi folk - This looks like a good outing. Not sure if my bad knee would manage. Will see.

My children, when little, always looked like angels when they were sleeping no matter what rascals they'd been during the day. As the latest bite on my leg heals I can say the same applies to this boy Ruby.

Last year a lovely woman picked up a surplus letterbox I'd put on the kerb. A week later she arrived at my door with a bag of carrots. She told me "I was going to make a carrot cake but some people don't eat cake". 🤣🤣 For future reference I do eat cake and carrot is my favourite.

Also NZ Labour - you really need to be a party of brawlers for everyone. For the sake of everyone. Take note please @chrishipkins.bsky.social

Good to see Don Brash looking half dead and every one of his 84 years.

If you don't already, follow @ledbydonkeys.org

Anyone know how long it takes for a dead something (hoping mouse or rat) under a house to finish decomposing or mummify? Asking for myself 🦨

If you need sewing machine or overlocker repairs or accessories, etc., Sewingtime in Sydenham is the best. I always go there. Today they found some needles (discontinued 40 yrs ago) for my ancient overlocker. They'd been in a drawer for that long. He gave me (free) enough to see me out!

This applies to us here in Aotearoa NZ too.

Does anyone know why milk price has gone up such a lot recently? Is it just following cheese and butter? Big price difference on these at p and s Wainoni.
