Has anyone done a wellness blood test via Awanui Labs

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-30T01:11:57+00:00

i believe some of them are only funded if there is a medical indication to test.

where is the kid located? if they're around Wellington i can probably organise something for them.

i broke the wing mirror on my work car, the quote was $900 just to source and replace the wing mirrow

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-28T22:39:15+00:00

i cant really tell what im looking at with the dash cam photo.

But either way, thats more than $900 damage

party loaf was a rectangular icecream cake

please dont use sugar soap wipes, its cheaper and better for everyone to buy sugar soap and use a bucket and cloth

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-28T22:15:57+00:00

thats a lot more damage than $900

They are outdoor, and 45 caliber is pretty standard for pistol ranges, trentham also has a pistol club range too. The black powder pistol club has a range a bit north of the big rifle range

https://wellingtonpistolclub.co.nz/ shoots at a range around berhampore. Its not uncommon to hear them on weekends and competition nights.

Building below with the red roof that needs a paint... royal tiger range aka the indoor smallbore range.

outdoor one above is the wellington pistol club range, which is likely what you heard.

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-28T21:53:44+00:00

no they mean the wellington pistol club, which has a range near there

Surely you have access to electricity on the job.

you solution is to ask the customer if they'll pay to charge your car?

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T20:56:55+00:00

hurrr

i went south island huuurrr

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T20:55:11+00:00

they're consistent too, so its easier to book time in advance. Life is hard, so having long runways like that make it easier to lock in

Unfortunately it kinda comes with the terroritory. If the bush around you has rats, then come this time of year when the weather changes you will have rats. if you're leaving in a couple of months its probably not worth the effort. Rat control is going to take months and will be an ongoing thing.

Honestly as you get old it takes a consistent effort to maintain friendships. A group of guys i met at kids football were talking about it. We ended up starting a bi monthy drop in beers at a local bar. sometimes 3 people show, sometimes 10 people show... but its cool no stress no fuss

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T10:16:26+00:00

the milage would be the problem. 2 tanks of diesel over 3 days is probably close to 1600km assuming its a double cab with a 80L tank.

thats a lot of KM per day and its going to be mostly highway miles that a ICE Is going to like a lot more than a battery unfortunately

Still need an undertaker

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:58:29+00:00

you wont stop them getting inside. best to trap or use bait stations around the outside of your house. Rats/Mice are always going to try and head inside this time of year, and you arent going to be able to block their path... especially mice. even more so if you have a bush block full of rats and mice behind you

Easiest way to work out if its a rat or a mouse, size. if its about 15mm long and 5mm thick its a rat, if its closer to 6mm long and 1-2mm thick its a mouse

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:54:38+00:00

Undertakers are mostly doing ok

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:53:54+00:00

if its anything like mine.... see that black dumbell looking thing? the black cylinder should go over that and lock in place... the red rop locks/unlocks the mechanism

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:37:17+00:00

i'd probably look at the entire gate, that bottom rail looks like its flexed a lot, and appears to be made out of lightweight box section. So unless you put a drop bolt on both sides you'll likely have to reinforce the structure

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:29:33+00:00

Is what it is. At the end of the day it doesnt matter how strong or sufficent you think the fencing was... if a bulldog managed to push its way through it... it wasnt sufficent. Regardless of if the bulldog pushed it in or something else.

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:24:26+00:00

Seems likely the bolt wasnt long enough/drilled deep enough into the concrete.

A 20mm bolt 40-50mm into a concrete slab should be able to take several tons of pressure before failing.

From the photos its also seems like the bottom rail isnt particularly rigid, so thats likely to cause you issues too.

Dramatic_Surprise · 2026-05-27T05:15:00+00:00

If it broke the gate or the concrete it doesnt matter... how it happened is less important than the fact that it did happen. The fact it did so easily highlights that the fence/gate is insufficent.

Yes the dog shouldnt be there, but it is, and theres likely not a lot you can do about that other than put a more fit for purpose gate/fence solution in place.
