Would this work or just be somewhere different to mow the lawns

"At a humongous 37.9 hectares (approximately) in size, it is easily visible even in the world map. Formerly built as a luxury spa retreat and lodge."
So fricking what, my place is visible on Google Earth!

I'm intrigued by the device in Photo 10.

They’ve had some smashing, impromptu parties there in the past. Fun.

Hope you’ll do a better job than the current pool boy!

Sparky wants to ask if they had a jar for the keys.

You should never use a mower for pool cleaning, anyway.

Hi apollo,
I hope the pair of you got home safely after the last party.
Please tell Sparky that we have replaced the jar he “ borrowed” He can keep that one as a souvenir. ???? ...Did greasing it with butter work or did you need to take him to the A and E ?
All the best,

Well, a trip to Paihia is one of my favourite places to visit.

that's an urban myth and a load of cobblers. It was peanut butter.

It's in the urban dictionary so it must be true. Apparently it was better than vegemite.

Well it's obvious,really, as gerbils prefer peanut butter to marmite (especially the muck made by Sanitarium) or Vegemite.

You can come and stay if you like.


Doesn't look like your there yet I will go over and stay next weekend. There's only rubbish bedding there I will take my own and make the beds properly when I leave. I don't like all the cheap ply on the walls.

Make sure you do your 'Due Diligence' - otherwise you might find that you are just a very expensive squatter. https://www.teaomaori.news/who-owns-motukawaiti-island

I’ve heard vegemite and marmite are both rather “ burney “ when you get them in delicate places, pics smooth is the most comfortable, can be peanut or almond, depending on your taste...I think that was in a chat room though, not on the talkback ....

I bow to your obvious knowledge and experience when it comes to anal condiments.

I'm bowing to Lovelurking for her experience.
Maybe her post above explains the device in photo 10, which I feel we should discuss.

What's wrong with it? Apparently people get stuff jammed in places all the time, I think you need to live a little.

Ah, I see. So something to have after a good "mudding". Thanks Shells.

I will check that out next weekend and ask the agent anything I am not sure about. There is a vase by the wall. I am not sure how the wood is suited to wet areas. I guess the blue mat is soft. I do not know why the cuts are in the timber on the left. I will measure the height at the weekend. There is also a spa bath another bath and another shower.

Jeffrey could explain it, but sadly he's no longer with us. Suicide with paper sheets apparently.
