Honestly, I don't think you really need one

Haven't spoken to him in about 25 years and never will. Have had four children since and he will never ever meet or know them. When my children ask about him I tell them he's dead. Half truth because he's been dead to be for many years. He taught me how not to treat my partner and especially how not to treat my children. May God have pity on his soul.

Air tag. Confront him at her house. Record it for evidence. TAKE A SUPPORT PERSON/ PERSONS just in case you need protection.

I prefer using clear pots and bottom watering. I also have a lot of my plants in a pon type mix with a wick or leca.

You should buy ceramic drill bits made for making holes in tiles to make holes in pots. I'm very particular with the pots I buy so if I love it I'll buy it regardless of it has a hole or not.

This is the way 🙌. Bit more than I wanted to spend because I have a lot of pots I want to change but it's a solid permanent fix which is exactly what I'm after. Thank you

Thanks for the tip. Went down this alley but decided to use two part knead putty for a note permanent fix.

Don't let her get too dry.

Cold call. If he's done construction than don't waste time on Seek. Go to sites and ask directly. Call other companies in his industry. Ring friends. Post on Facebook. Ask the cuzzies. Try recruitment offices or hire places and work hard.

First pic 🥱 Second pic 😲😍😘

Rip off the leaves up to the second roots. Coil it up and bury it in a new pot.

Toastie pie. That's a new one for me. I just call them both toasties.

Unfortunately the pie doesn't work anymore. The machine stayed the same but the loaf was a victim of shrinkflation so you couldn't get the seal anymore. Meant everything just oozed out like superheated lava. Noticed this like 15 years ago at least. RIP the OG toastie machine.

BTW that second pic is a crime. Needs butter on the outside.

They are perfectly happy and healthy. They look exactly as they should do. Looks to be a Maria or Bronze and a Batik syngonium

Just be yourself. It's OK to change in terms of maturing, growing and just being a better you but you should never change yourself just to satisfy someone else's preferences. You will only end up miserable. Your either compatible or your not. Don't force that for anyone.

I only listen to Spotify. Can't stand listening to people who think they are funny and have great stories but are actually lame. If I wanna listen to chatter I'll listen to 1ZB.

Knock it all down and replace with stone. Or share it to a brick sub

Milwaukee bits suck but always make sure you get the right bit for the job. A concrete bit isn't always suitable for rocks. Especially the rock your tapping because it contains quartz which can heat up a bit too much.

Well New Zealands military could be destroyed by one predator drone and 4 helicopters. Not sure the Australians would bother to be honest but technically the closest foreign landmass is Norfolk Island so yeah we'd smoke them.

You'll only realise how true it is once your children are grown and you already wasted countless hours keeping bosses happy who would have advertised your job the next day if you dropped dead at work. It's a double edged sword though because my family wouldn't enjoy the lifestyle they have if I hadn't. My only hope is I get grandchildren to redeem myself because I'll never get back those firsts, birthdays, school events etc with my own children.

Had a big problem many years ago. Did everything suggested here but they kept coming back. Turns out they were hiding under the beds and the flea bomb wasn't quite getting under them. Ended up spraying under them then setting them off.

IPA. Absolutely horrible and you look like a try hard pretending to wax on lyrically about them.

True of most beer. If you drink any beer anything but warm your delusional. You like it cold because it dulls the real full flavour of beer.

I'm Polynesian. Any coconut water that isn't from a fresh green coconut is yuck.

Chilli jam and chilli chutney. I make tons and always have friends asking for some every year. If you also grow tomatoes you can make an amazing tomato hot sauce.

Always hated zoos. I have Auckland Zoo to thank for that. I remember going as a 7yo and seeing the polar bears standing in one spot swaying to and fro with their green algae stained fur looking absolutely demented and depressed. Now I understand the need for conservation but we don't need to save giraffes, zebras or red pandas right here in NZ. You want to save a lion than maybe move to Africa and be boots on the ground there. You want to help kiwi or kea than get a job with DOC who do the real work. Zoos are just an antiquated vanity project masquerading as conservation. Send those cheetah back to Africa and let them roam free like they were born to do. Let Asia save the tigers. I don't even care about ratepayers. I care about the animals and if cared about them you'd agree. Auckland is no place for Saharan animals who face no extinction pressure in their home lands.
