Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Only thing it’s a big hassle to take it to the recycling place here, not sure it fits in our car and no tow bar either. I did find out that it’s only $30 for Heathcotes to do old appliance removal if I buy through them though.

Honestly I think you'll likely pay $20-30 regardless so if you aren't paying extra to buy through them then that's probably a pretty good deal.

I don’t know I feel kind of bad to give an unsupportive mattress away to someone knowing they’ll be waking up with sore backs sooner or later 😂

Different people like different mattresses. It might be their jam. Or might be for a guest room that doesn't get slept in often. Or they might be young, young people can sleep anywhere and not even notice.
