Maybe a new skill to learn while we are in lockdown? 🔩⚙⛓🔧

Fiona from Henderson

It has been quoted that sculptor Brian Mock is a 'welding virtuoso', and he really is😀
You really must pop over to his page and have a look at his work - it's OUTSTANDING.

They were unable to go to Church which was mindblowing for a lot of them . They say the oldies are the most vulnerable and to stay at home.A lot of the elderly don't have smart phones, computers etc and their lifeline is TV as is with my mother who i can't see at the moment. There is so many classic movies they could play for them instead of the repeats and crap they keep playing. Give them a couple of hours in the morning or evening dedicated to them. There is so many of them out there on their own, or is it with TVNZ FRANKLY MY DEAR I DON'T GIVE A DAMN.
