    My 80 year old Grandfather in NZ just got a new laptop. He would get great enjoyment out of a Boards.ie website. Can anyone suggest an equivelent in NZ? Also any other sites that an octogenerian who loves gardening, DIY and is developing an interest in the internet would be great!

    The main one in New zealand is trademe.co.nz. Its an auction site like a mini version of ebay but click on the community option and there are heaps of forums to join. HTH
    Cheers for that am a big Trade-me fan! have sold Text books on it. D old man buys cars site unseen with no Reg or Warrent on it and Cattle again site unseen! Only in NZ!!!! :D:D

    sight unseen, I presume they come with DPI Certs and NLIS tags at least.

    No idea. Most I know is they are TB free and have a model photo on Trade Me, I think like some men he just looks at the pictures of a certain body part!
