Carpet or rug
Hi. does anyone have a small red carpet or red rug either going cheaply, free or to borrow.
Hoping to get one before Tues 24th.
I'm running the meeting at my toastmasters club (at Western community center in Nawton) and my theme is an Awards ceremony type meeting.
As hopefully all attending members will be glammed up (dressed in their best) I want members and any guests to get the red carpet treatment by having a small carpet or rug at the main door upon entry whereby nibbles and soft drinks will be available.
If anyone else has one available please contact me on 0273901487. Will want preferably by Monday 23rd.
As only needed for a brief period willing to buy if offered for a really very cheap price but hopefully someone has 1 I can borrow or for free.
Many thanks
PS people genuinely interested in toastmasters are welcome to attend. Meeting starts at 7.15.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
