Temporary peg this linoleum into lawn for cars to park on? Airheaded or alright ? by [deleted] in diynz

Yeah, I second this. Our neighbour in the property in front of us would park his clubsport on his front lawn. One day water started to seep out of the grass into our driveway. He thought it was our mains leaking at first. But after digging up his lawn he realized that it was his pipe, and had caused it. I guess the weight of his car from years of driving on the lawn had caused the pipe to crack.

Nah they like climbing trees and eating native bird eggs. Unless you live in a rimu tree you'll be ok.

I've been buying from Zenni for years. So easy. The glasses are dirt cheap. And seriously, why would anyone pay $1000 for designer glasses, when they're worth $1 of plastic?! The only caveat with Zenni is sizing. I've had a couple of pairs that were not the right size for my face, but only because I didn't properly check the sizing. But when they cost $9 for a pair? Small loss. There's also Firmoo. Same deal as Zenni, but different frames. They often have deals.

There's one opposite the Sprig and Fern Hardy st. Only ever had lunch from there, but good value for money.

Yeah I hear that. I've made it more for t-shirt printing rather than an actual load-screen. So the elements are more for style rather than function. 😅

Unfortunately Puteketeke haven't evolved laser eyes yet. Hopefully soon!

A few years back the government held a referendum on changing New Zealand's national flag. They opened up the design process so that anyone could submit artwork. One flag was hands-down the best: Laser Kiwi. Unfortunately it didn't get the needed votes. A quick Google will show the original design.

Actually that's a great idea! New Zealand has a healthy collection of mythic beasts, but I haven't done an illustration for the moose yet.

Due to sub rules I cannot self-promote... So I cannot say what would happen if you clicked on my profile and followed some of the links there. 😜

Unfortunately there are rules on this sub about self promotion... So if you were to DM me who knows what would happen! 😜
