Details:
In the first-ever account of New Zealand's role in Spain's civil war of 1936-39, Mark Derby presents the personal stories of some extraordinary individuals who became involved. For example: A fighter pilot from Wellington who landed his plane with a shattered shoulder, then left for Hollywood to make movies with Errol Flynn; A Cromwell surgeon who operated as close as possible to the firing line, and was described as 'the most important volunteer to come from the British Commonwealth'; A tough young wharfie from Napier who buried 80 of his fellow fighters in a single grave, and later became a union leader and thorn in the side of PM Rob Muldoon; A Christchurch-born academic who risked his life as an intelligence agent in Spain, and was later termed the handsomest man at Oxford University; An elegant young Englishwoman who fought with anarchist militia units and, under the guidance of Frank Sargeson, turned that experience into a writing career; A Wellington film-maker, show-jumper and flamenco dancer who fought for Franco's Fascists. Derby also records the actions of New Zealanders who worked for the Spanish cause at home by raising funds, lobbying politicians, writing poems and spreading propaganda. Kiwi Companeros includes contributions from some of New Zealand's leading writers and historians. It draws on personal letters, recently released military documents and previously unpublished photographs to tell an all-but forgotten story.

Great product
Color: 1a Peva Clear Premium, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
The material is thin, and see thru. Haven't had any problems with it so far, and I've used it for over a month now. No soap scum, no build up of any kind. A really Great product! The material is staying really clean looking.

Bad Magnets
Color: 1a Peva Clear Premium, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
It fits, it does what it's supposed to, to keep water in, but the magnets at the bottom to keep it in place do not work at all. Maybe not all of them are like that, but mine was, all 3 of the magnets do nothing. It does have metal rings at the top which is appreciated, my last one just had slits in it and it was terrible. So that's a quality plus.

Sturdy, Waterproof, and Easy to Clean
Color: 1a Peva Clear Premium, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a Peva Clear Premium, Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the BigFoot Clear Shower Curtain Liner for a few weeks now, and I'm happy with my purchase.
The material feels much more premium than the typical flimsy liners. It’s made from PEVA, so there’s no strong plastic smell right out of the package. It’s thick enough to hang nicely without clinging to you during a shower, but still flexible and easy to handle.
The built-in magnets at the bottom add some weight to keep the liner in place against the tub, which helps prevent water from escaping onto the floor.
I also appreciate that it’s truly waterproof and dries quickly. Water beads up and runs right off, so it doesn’t get that grimy, damp feeling. It's like Rain-X on your liner.
Since it's machine washable, it's easy to keep clean and extend its lifespan instead of having to replace it over and over, which adds to its value.
The grommets feel sturdy and hold up well with regular use, even when opening and closing the curtain daily. And they're rustproof so they will retain their color over time.
If you’re looking for a reliable, odor-free shower liner that actually stays in place and holds up over time, this is a solid choice.

Most comfortable pillows for my back
Color: Navy, Size: 26x26 Inch
I have a really bad back along with sciatica so I use these pillows on my recliner chair, one for my back and one under my bottom. They make all the difference in the world. They are soft and squishy yet still offer support. They are a great value for sure. This blue color was about half the price of other colors with was fine with me because I put washable covers on them anyway. I frequently fall asleep on them. My dog loves when they accidentally fall on the floor because he curls up on them and falls asleep. He finds them very comfortable. I can't say enough good about these. They would be great on a bed or couch too or even as a floor cushion. They are high quality, well made pillows.
