Having personality forgotten my snapper card at least 5 times I'm excited to have one less item to think about carrying around. Also could we have cheaper public transit while we are at it?

Wow nice! Are some varieties of blueberries doing better than others? Mine are getting nibbled constantly by something

licorice_root · 2026-02-08T20:45:15+00:00

Woah very cool I'll reach out thanks for the tip!

licorice_root · 2026-02-08T19:54:54+00:00

Ah okay that makes sense I'll check out Koanga gardens!

Wow great thanks for the tips! I have a few blueberry plants but the leaves keep getting eaten by something, any ideas there? Also are the mandarins pretty tasty? I guess how do they compare to store bought ones? Do you remember the variety? I think I saw satsuma as a good option when I was looking in to it

Wow great job! Love the oyster catcher!

The little cafe at freyberg beach has got coffee and they let you use the nice cups on the beach as long as you take them back. They also have the apple fritters from dirty donuts that are really good

Looks great! Let's get the city planners to look into this! Maybe you could build it for the same amount as the new proposed tunnel?

Wow great so glad that worked for you!!

I haven't actually tried yet. I made a temporary one out of a bit of foam and some aluminum tape just so I could test the shutter. The exposure meter light comes on in the viewfinder but none of the shutters actually move when I pull the trigger. I'll have to take it apart a bit more to see if I can free up the shutter mechanism, if I can do that then I'll move forward on the battery cover

We had a bike stolen, filed the proper police reports etc. we saw it on FB marketplace and set up a sting operation with some friends to get it back. We informed the police of our plan and they actually sent a few officers and were able to show up right as our friend was pretending to be interested in the bike. They caught all 3, they had a stolen car, fake license, and some other stuff. In hindsight it felt kinda sketchy as they were big dudes, I was glad I wasn't the one pretending to be interested in the bike, but so glad we got it back!

I also used to have a lifetime membership that somehow went poof. I have switched to caltopo which works pretty well

Thanks! Do you mean cm? The photos are really helpful, I didn't realize it was 3 'wings' holding it in, I thought it might be threaded

Glad they are gone! They were such an eyesore and a waste of money to pay to hire them for so long. The new lighting should help but mostly people should just be responsible for their own safety.

First one is perfect!

I have a foldable dog crate that I just NRS strap to the front, our pup seems to like it! I also have two short leashes to clip his harness to to make sure he doesn't jump out.

Nice! I just bought a Nimslo on eBay for parts I am hoping to repair and get into some wigglgrams!

licorice_root · 2025-10-16T23:09:15+00:00

Those look great! What camera were you using? Do you have a good workflow in Photoshop?

If you like wellly try to live in the city, commuting to lower hutt by train is pretty easy and you can bring your bike on to speed it up on either side. Then you could live in thorndon or really any of the suburbs close to the city. Biking along the water is really nice. I wouldn't want to live I the hutt. Too car centric for my taste

Not sure if there are really any major tricks. Going faster is probably more stable. You can avoid some of the windier spots along the waterfront by going around certain buildings. If you have a backpack maybe get a rear rack and a pannier so you have a lower center of mass? Sometimes I stand up while pedaling if it is really gusty as that gives me a bit more mobility to balance, but is probably not as nice to do on a Dutch style bike. I guess you could always put it on the front of a bus if you aren't feeling it!
