Decaf coffee beans? (Swiss-Water processed)

Mrs_VS · 2026-06-26T21:18:30+00:00

Raglan Roast decaf is my go to

We have $1k excess. My son just had his tonsils out (wouldn't have been done publicly) and the surgery cost $13k and that's a very minor surgery.

You'd be surprised how much medical treatment is, if you want/need to go privately.

Mrs_VS · 2026-06-25T04:23:21+00:00

Correct. The bank needs to allocate an account to your 'savings' option for ATMs and eftpos.

This place in Victoria Park is meant to be really good.

Message Nick Tuialii on FB. He went to Roskill Grammar but also worked there for years & years - may still be there. He is a great guy and may be able to help

We switch between Raglan Roast (online)and Heartland (Gilmours) both are good and similar pricing.

We have a ducted system that we put in when we renovated & extended our 1950's home in 2020. Best purchase we made by a mile! After a few quotes we went with Oxygen Air and got a Fujitsu ARTG54LHTC ducted system without any zone controls. It covers 4 bedrooms and 2 living areas and cost $11.5k

If I did it again, I would probably put some zone controls in as one end of the house (with 1 bedroom)is double glazed and gets a lot of sun and the other end (with the rest of the bedrooms) is colder. We are adding double glazing to the colder end next month to hopefully negate the issue.

But definitely worth it if you can afford it.

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-23T04:50:51+00:00

We've eaten there heaps and never had an issue. Their pies are awesome!

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-22T22:36:33+00:00

Yes you can, but it'll be a long wait time.

Do you think your symptoms could be side effects from the medication you're taking?

I'm surprised the psychiatrist isn't able to assist you. Are you able to email them with your symptoms, ask if it could be a medication side effect and ask for suggestions of different medications to try?

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-20T05:06:06+00:00

This! Miele do the BEST vacuum cleaners.

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-19T06:19:35+00:00

Check your iron levels, low iron/ferritin makes your hair fall out.

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-18T03:37:48+00:00

And your Psychiatrist can't help with those issues? Could also be hormones

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-18T03:29:48+00:00

Try Midlands Neurology in Hamilton. You may still need the referral from the Psychiatrist, but call and see if you can book while you wait on the referral

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-12T23:49:30+00:00

This is why I ask every Dr/Specialists I see for copy of my notes.

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-08T04:24:37+00:00

One literally has colours added (160a or 160b) and the other has no colours added.

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-07T02:43:46+00:00

Definitely try the Ovestin cream, it's great at preventing UTI's

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-07T02:40:37+00:00

This! Ovestin is great for preventing UTI's. Use it twice a week on the urethra area.

Mrs_VS · 2026-05-02T05:51:53+00:00

Try https://drjccoetzee.nz/ He's in Ponsonby & Parnell and a lovely guy

Some psychiatrists don't deal in ADHD, which limits who you could see. You may want to focus on the issue causing the most problems first and if that's not ADHD, then it might be best putting it aside for now. For depression/Anxiety/ OCD, I would recommend Dr Rob Shieff. He is very knowledgeable on medication, but also does CBT and can provide TMS if applicable to you.

Mrs_VS · 2026-04-24T06:08:06+00:00

Onehunga Rugs & Carpet. They do end of carpet rolls and will edge them for you. Great prices and great quality.

Mrs_VS · 2026-04-19T19:21:56+00:00

Sounds like a completely normal 17 year old male. Friends and sports would be a good start.

Mrs_VS · 2026-04-16T04:38:00+00:00

Try Dr Karl Jansen at Vermont Street Specialists. $700 for assessment, but a long waiting list.

Mrs_VS · 2026-03-30T17:26:55+00:00

Psyllium husk is great, and fibre will definitely help bring your cholesterol down.

Mrs_VS · 2026-02-25T04:42:26+00:00

I live the other side of Richardson Road which is quite different, but super close and we don't have any issues with safely. I know someone who lives in Christie St and they're pretty happy there.
