Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

In my experience they are happy with either. I normally just email and ask.

For something like a toilet, I'd think they would want you to know which toilet you want. It wouldn't be unusual for you to buy it first then they install it, but equally if it's at Mitre 10 or something they would probably be happy to get it for you (and charge for their time).

So I'd probably have a look online (or in store) at which toilet you'd like, then email them with a link saying you want to get this toilet and ask if you should buy it first or if they would order it in.
