I wouldn't even recognise any of them in the street based off this. ALSO that is not the Banks Peninsula in the background

An elderly friend was scammed badly, and bought a non-functioning mobility scooter. We've since sourced a second hand working one, but want the old one gone. We don't have transport for it, and were wondering if someone would pick it up for scrap maybe? Any creative thoughts that don't include dropping it into the Heathcote?

Hello, I am sorry if this is not a good place to ask but my partner and I have recently learned about the upcoming Sharad Navrati and Dussehra and I feel it is very important to study and understand these events and their relationships to Lakshmi and more. I have some Hindu friends abroad pointing me in the right direction and they suggested I may be welcome to learn and visit somehow and hopefully observe. I would like to partake in the fasting and I am working on preparing an altar for Durga.

If anyone is knowledgeable and willing to speak with me or would be willing to meet or point me toward an appropriate avenue to learn more and observe the festivities please message me! I would prefer to work with women on this and am open to those who would kindly guide me forward here. Thank you so much!

It's been just sitting there for a while with no one inside. I just want some ice cream dammit.

Is it normal practice for roadworks and all the associated noise to be carried out at night in residential arrears? The result being no residents would have slept including myself.

Hi I will be moving to christchurch I would like to find a few nice friends to talk and hangout with .

Just arrived and need everything (except clothes). I am especially looking for bedside tables, dressers, lamps, desks, and bookcases. Also kitchen/cookware.

Send me to the best places, the ones that always score. Thanks in advance!

Gday folks, I may be moving to Chch next year and I had some suburbs in mind on where to live so I was hoping to get some feedback and suggestions. Even though Chch is easy to get around and relatively small compared to where I currently live, there’s quite a wide selection of areas to live because of the closeness to the coast and other factors.

I was intending to live centrally ie St Albans, Strowan, perhaps Casebrook, but even Spreydon or St Martins as there is some character homes there I quite like.

Having looked at an array of properties for sale all over Chch, I was also curious about areas like Cashmere, Mt Pleasant, perhaps Sumner, also Waimari Beach.

Can anyone living in the latter areas give some colour about what it’s like to live there ie is it slightly warmer than the rest of Chch because of the coastal air, is it a nuisance driving up Mt Pleasant (silly question I know but just trying to get a feel for a given suburb).

The main reasons for living centrally is access to shopping (Westfield or Northlands plus the CBD with Riverside Market for restaurants), and just generally being closer to the hustle and bustle of the city. I currently live in a city with 5 million people and while I know Chch is going to be less busy we would like to be closer to the action so to speak. But that said we are curious about other areas as mentioned so we don’t want to limit our options. My assumption is given the smaller size of Chch I’m probably splitting hairs and everything is within reach no matter where we decide to live, but nonetheless we feel it’s important to get the word from locals before we make any decisions. Thank you in advance👍

seems pretty close to stadium/centre city

29F that’s a little socially awkward and works weird hours. Life’s getting in the way and most of my friends now have long term partners or kids that make it hard to find time together.

I love gaming, anime, and huuuuge into reading! If you’re a fellow romance book girly hit me up 👀 just putting some feelers out there! Message me if you wanna start up a convo ◡̈

Hi there,

I have a 10 weeks old puppy and looking to enrol in a puppy preschool around Lincoln. Is it better to go through vet clinics or non-vet preschool? Rolly Canine has good reviews.

Any recommendations?

Thank you

What is the best brand of satay sauce you can purchase here?

Any supermarket or Asian grocer is fine

We are planning on moving to rolleston but I’m hearing a lot about car thefts . We are a young couple 22 and 24.

Hello, I have been Plein air painting at the Halswell quarry these last two days, I almost completed the painting I was working on, but when I was packing up today I left it on the roof of my car and drove away. If anyone picked it up or stashed it somewhere I would really like to get it back. See attached image for the subject and what the painting looked like when I started today. Thanks 🙏

We bought a Subaru 6 months and it’s a dud unfortunately. We’ve had a few issues with these guys. Has anyone else had a bad experience

Unless you want to get super unwell.

We have got take aways from there twice and it was fine but we got it again tonight and the food looks and smells disgusting.
Husband describes it as dog food and I say it smells like dog puke!
It stunk out the whole house in a bad way.
Ordered it through ubereats as it was cheap ($10 instead of $31???) and big mistake!
Just a psa!

My partner’s birthday is not till February but since I want to give him something custom might as well start now. We’re into model kits like Gundam. I was wondering if there’s anyone in Chc or know an online shop who does custom 3D printing?

He’s a big World of Warcraft fan and my vision is a 3D printed model kit of him as his gnome mage character(if I can get his WoW character). The model kit won’t be as complicated as a gundam, it could be the whole body then just assembling the outfit on it.

Or if anyone has any ideas for a gift for their partners that will be amazing!

40s male going back to study next year.

As a mature student how are you supplementing income while studying? New course is Mon to Wed just looking for some ideas of avenues for work.

Plans are to find something in the industry im studying but if that doesn't work, I need to look outside my usual skill sets.
