Na bit smarter this time had the shits but I’m algood new these ones were probably not the ones jus double checking do you know any spots around riverhead
OK it looks like the bearing is totally missing. My advice would be to pull the other wheel and look there - it should have a bearing with some markings indicating what it is. Match the correct part and order it. I think this will be easier to replace than a "proper" one in a car. But you'll get a good idea if you feel confident doing this by pulling the other wheel.
Holy crap i’m so sorry to your poor little greyhound. I have a border collie so hes pretty big but i think he just wants to play chase with them… i will make sure i keep a good eye on him when hes outside around them. We live on a farm so theres been a bunch of baby possums in the trees. Cute from a distance but they do hiss at him a lot 😓
Um it’s kind of crampy? Like it’s not that sharp muscle locking up type pain. I’d say it’s closer to the pain after a cramp itself. I’ll stop to stretch it out and it relieves it temporarily but it starts right back up again
Hm possibly what I had. Essentially what would happen with me is if I ran for 10 or so minutes my calves would harden and become painful to the point I had to stop. If I pushed through it I would get pain in the Achilles and numb feet. I was passed around by physios and GP's for a while but eventually ended up at an orthopedic surgeon's office who diagnosed me after a few tests with chronic compartment syndrome (note this is very different to acute compartment syndrome. Essentially what it means is the sheaths around my muscles were too tight. I had surgery to release the muscles and it worked great.
No worries it plagued me for years. Got to the point that even walking on an incline would kick it off. Most doctors didn't even know what it was, several physios completely misdiagnosed it. It wasn't until I had a doctor that was like yeah it's probably this, I'll refer you to an orthopaedic surgeon. Best of luck!
I’m currently buying them for $1.88 a can in bulk orders of 500+ cans from a local distributor, I just wanna cut them out and deal directly from monster energy NZ but lack the license or permit thing required
The grinding is primarily so you can ingest/smoke a higher quantity at a time. The more the better especially if using it as a replacement for weed. Snuff grade is always best as you can snort it, although I’ve never tried (sounds horrible).
Yeah it is unbelievable, I work on an island and they come to roost in the evenings I assume as it's pest free. The numbers are crazy, blacking out the sky. The smell is horrendous where they roost and the pest weed growth underneath is never ending.
Ok I don't mean to be rude but this wouldn't take off. Firstly kiwi feed on grubs under leaf litter or underground, they do not require supplementary feeding as there is enough food for them. Secondly stoats are not a threat to adult birds, only kiwi chicks. I have done a bit of work with getting kiwi to use artifical above ground burrows and really struggle to get them to use them, they prefer their own burrows. Not to mention they switch burrows nightly unless nesting. I would also imagine your style of burrow would not be inticing for them. Supplementary feeding is normally used in environments that are missing their food source, or the population is too high. Tiri tiri matangi is an example of that, they use supplementary nectar feeders for their three species, this is not common practice. I do like the idea of something that stops the entry of pests. I think if you adapted something possibly for sea birds such as petrel. We have seen cases of a stoat waiting for the egg to hatch and then nabbing the chick straight away. The only thing I would be weary of is abandonment if the object is too intrusive.
I've been a few times. You are guaranteed to see korimako either way but you will have to spend a bit of time hunting to see a kokako. I like to go when the kowhai or flax is in flower as the birds are feeding on that. Otherwise the nectar feeders will be on the feeders that are placed around the island. To be honest you could go on both dates and see both birds if you put the time in.
Whoops just realised you said takahe, they are normally on the grass around the visitors shop and by the lighthouse. If staying the night you are more likely to see them once the day visitors leave at 3pm.
You're alive! Also a no, please tell me you haven't eaten these already too

Don't even know where Riverhead is mate sorry
UFC is about who’s the best, not who’s the most boring or not.
Wrong
Because I've got like 2 shares and get a voucher for a combo every year.
This makes me laugh harder than it should
Yeah Macca's dude or the guy that walks around collecting cans to sell
Norway rat
Maybe just unbolt the entire axle from the trailer and take it in to a mechanic if you can
Great idea

Looking at those pics again, aren't there two bearings still on the beam?

He means his greyhound killed a possum
Opgg?

Honestly after looking it up, it does sound very similar! I’ve never heard of that I’ll have to ask my doctor. Thank you so much!

GREAT PHOTOS
its very easy to not get rice down the drain
Also very easy to not put wet wipes down the toilet yet here we are
Rice is biodegradable
Sure but if there is a million grains going down a night that wouldn't enough time to degrade
Heard of it, fairly popular in usa
The dairy across the road from maunu pet shop
Beat me to it.
Yeah I've never tried it there but they've been selling it forever so must be ok

My god
Easiest to start with the 5g tin but if you’re worried about price get the South African fermented and whizz it through a coffee grinder :)
Is there only difference that it's not grinded? Also what's the difference between the countries?

Thanks mate appreciate it
Are you trying to poison them?
Yeah if I can get them to take normal grain

I keep one of those in my kitchen. No brainer tbh
What is it?
My phone does it too, pretty sure it Google's it. Think it works for businesses
Why red item and not blue?
I think cuz Gwen almost hasn't any control and after red boi evolved it is useful
What
Trademe or marketplace
Jesus nut under the cap in the middle?
Fuck knows, cant get the cap off, too rusty.
Those caps are cheap. Might need to destroy it with a pry bar to get it off.
Cheers bro

Awesome, thank you! So you reckon either time of year is as good?
I normally go early summer so can't speak for April. Hopefully someone else chimes in here for that time of year.
