Tried one of our Warehouse purchased avos. It was great, a Haas variety which are usually nicest. Paid $6 for 5 good sized avos, seems a good price to me.

Crickey I’m starting to sound like a Warehouse salesperson, but I’m just keen to advise on better value food etc. if we find it.

It looks a windy few days ahead, but maybe not raining, so that’s one thing.

AI response, hope this helps …

Legionnaires' disease can decline if the compost is infected and has been spread on the garden. However, the exact amount of time it takes for the bacteria to die off depends on a number of factors, including the type of Legionella bacteria, the temperature and moisture conditions, and the presence of other organisms in the soil.

In general, Legionella bacteria prefer warm, moist environments. They can survive for long periods of time in water, but they are more susceptible to drying out. When compost is spread on the garden, the Legionella bacteria are exposed to sunlight and other environmental elements, which can help to kill them off.

However, it is important to note that Legionella bacteria can form spores, which are very resistant to environmental conditions. Spores can survive for months or even years, and they can germinate and start growing again if conditions are favorable.

Therefore, it is important to take precautions when working with compost, even if it has been spread on the garden for some time.

We saw that when looking at fitting tanks. I guess it depends on projected water useage, and therefore the storage needed.

I guess a simple test will be watering your beds with a watering can, counting the useage, then that’ll give you what you’d need to store. Of course watering is very much based on the number of days needed, which is then driven by the weather.

Tough call eh?

No issues at all. I saw those tanks. We don’t have roof collection, but have irrigation supply. That said it sometimes is turned off for a few days, so we looked for an alternative supply, filling up containers may work for us.

I’m very experienced with usenet, still using it since around the early 1990’s. Nowadays, the old chat forum style has basically gone, and it is now essentially just binaries used for movies/tv/audio/magazines/xxx

Indexers list the contents, and providers give the access. I get downloads from Europe at 50-60 MBytes/sec. There are automation apps to auto download what you are after as soon as it is posted.

The old text forums are still there, but are mostly just full of spam.

Waipapa, Kerikeri

Our’s had onions, garlic, which were both very low cost, especially the garlic, compared to the supermarkets, plus oranges, apples and kumaras. Can imagine they’ll have more local produce when it becomes available.

Had a visit to The Warehouse to check out their new grocery section. It’s a "normal" Warehouse not an overly big one. They’ve changed the store layout to now sell fresh fruit and veggies, plus pantry items, cooking oil, flour, dried fruit, yeast etc. The veggies were nice quality and certainly at a lower price than the local supermarkets.

It’s a tough call in deciding the seriousness of an offence when deciding the consequences, especially when it is a repeat. The costs of incarceration are huge, yet it seems to be needed to hopefully discourage the more serious crimes.

I guess we’ll have a month or two to collect water. Would you need to have a collection system from your roof?

A good question. The recidivism costs I guess are what most, me included, will view as a valid reason to continue imprisonment for serious offences.

Maybe, however, and that said, there are very few posts to that forum, whereas we have a number of interested, and active, users who contribute to any NZ political posts.

I’ll remove it if you’d like, but you can just remove it if it’s not in keeping.

Have you seen all the older series? I like the way the characters are developed across each series but still keep their style.

Take a web search for user cleaning of your dishwasher. Ours has a removable filter, but sometimes it needs a "deep clean" by removing the internal panels and cleaning waste water ways.

You really should clean a dishwasher. Debris from plates and dishes, even if partially washed before going in the washer, will accumulate in the filters and grease traps.

Yep, that worked.

That makes sense, thanks. I’ll repost it without adding the image to see what happens. If it works, I’ll remove the first post.

I put it in the IMG field. On a browser there are both the article URL and image fields. Sometimes just the URL automatically puts an image in place. If it doesn’t adding an image from a local location, adds it, which is what I did, but it didn’t work.

In Memmy now I can’t see a link to the article URL The image flashes up, then disappears. Works as expected on a browser.

You’re right. Should be good now. I have to say Lemmy seems very troublesome for me. I had initially used the main URL link,for the post, and added a link to the image after because none was showing, and that then seems to have been swapped for the original link. C’est la vie as they say.

EDIT: It works in a browser, but not in the Memmy app …. arrrgh, time to call it a day methinks.
