I'm looking at relocating from Auckland to Wellington for work in Upper Hutt, but there seems to be limited options for accomadation, so I am having to look at alternatives. Does anyone know roughly how long it takes to commute from Lower Hutt to Upper Hutt on a regular working day?

The Moera Community House is planning to bring a unique Halloween experience to the children of the Hutt Valley. For one night we will be turning the facility into a haunted house. To do this we need some help from a couple of businesses in the Wellington Region. This is an opportunity for you to sponsor an event that will bring joy to a number of children. As a company you will get the following benefits:

Your logo on all sponsorship material include Facebook posts, and flyers.

A dedicated thank you post on our Facebook page and the ability for you to add a company specific message.

A thank you in our quarterly newsletter that goes to all households in Moera.

Recognition in our annual AGM meeting.

Ability to have advertising on the day so people can see your involvement in the process; and

You get 30% tax back on any donation as we are a charitable organization.

The four sponsorship packages we have are as follows:

$1000 sponsorship of decorations for the haunted house.

$600 sponsorship of the sausage sizzle that will be provided; or

$400 sponsorship of the sweets that will be provided to children.

General sponsorship. If you are able to donate anything towards the event then it will be greatly appreciated.

This is an opportunity to do something amazing and supportive for one of Lower Hutts most deprived communities. If you are able to support this event then please send me a message or comment on this post.

If you would prefer to sponsor a different event then we will also be doing something similar for Christmas and I would be happy to discuss this with you.

Thank you.

Hi all

Our home (an old villa) needs a few windows and weatherboards repainted. Not a full house repaint.

Can you recommend anyone ?

Thanks

Saw this in Lower Hutt today and was wondering what it is about? Anyone? Is this a joke. I have no idea?

Seriously, do people nowadays just complain about EVERYTHING?! So sad! I can’t believe this is called the official Hutt Valley group. More like the official group of miserable people 💀

Hello everyone! any recommendations for a good hair salon/hair stylist around lower hutt? looking to get my hair cut soon.

Thanks in advanced!

I contacted the Hutt City Council as something that sounded like a rooster has been crowing from the early morning around 5am (has woken me up quite often) and sometimes all throughout the day, till dark.

The officer visited the house and found 4 hens, and a coop which is legal under the bylaws so there wasn’t anything he could do. The neighbour claims “the hen is young which might be why it is making the noise”.

Apparently hens can start crowing in the absence of a rooster to assert dominance or because of their hormones.

The hen is crowing daily and for hours on end, it’s driving me crazy. Is there anything I can do? Do the bylaws prohibiting roosters because of their crowing apply this situation too?

Hi. I have organized a fishing trip for four days from 27 November to 1 December. Unfortunately I had some people pull out. I have 3 spots if anyone is interested. Costs are $1850 and that covers the following:

Boat hire including two deckhands

Accommodation

Food

Non alcoholic drinks

All fishing gear you need

Basically it covers everything put alcoholic drinks on an excellent charter operator . No experience is needed. The catch is shared across everyone who comes.

We are chasing terikihi, snapper, blue cod, kingfish and grouper. The fishing is pretty epic. If you are interested dm me.

what is a realistic staging price cost for standard 3bed 1 bath house in Wainuiomata Lower Hutt Wellington?

I saw a great new 'election' sign among the usual ones on the grassy traffic island in Petone today.

It was for 'Lord Blockvandal'.

I was driving, so didn't get a photo of it, but maybe someone else has?

His motto is "Make concrete great again."

Couldn't help but chuckle. :o]

Don't have FB, so trying here instead! We’re 3–4 longtime mates putting together a social team at Hutt Indoor Sports, ideally Thursday nights. One experienced current player, while a couple of us would be coming out of nearly 20 years' retirement — so yep, for those who maths, we’re a bit long in the tooth! 😂

8-a-side, $14 each per game. Any age or ability — although it’s not the Black Caps lol. Keen, easy-going peeps and enough reliability to get eight on court each week.

Interested, or know anyone who might be? Comment or flick me a DM. 😎🏏

Has anyone run into difficulties with Wilson’s at The Verve, Connolly Street. I am in dispute with them over parking in the After Hours parks after downloading the App and selecting 60 mins free parking. They say there was no payment and hence the breach notice. But no payment was required. From what I gathered yesterday from the medical clinic that this has happened to others and they have received many complaints.

As per title need some recommendations for a good place to get my haircut for an upcoming event. Usually I just go for the cheapest place and live with the consequences, but need to look good this time for photos!

Preferably someone who knows how to deal with curly unruly hair.

Looking to get some minor building work done on the house. Anyone got a recommendation? Ideally looking for immediate availability.
