It was brought out recently for a forthcoming little one. When we looked at it there were a few breaks in the wool resulting in small holes. Does anyone know someone who has the proficiency to repair this delicate piece of knitting? It would break my heart if nothing could be done. Can you please PM me or phone on 843 4421. The baby is due in early December. I wonder if perhaps someone who is able to do or repair fine embroidery. I have a small amount of wool that could be used. Many thanks.

In 1925, the legendary British explorer Percy Fawcett ventured into the Amazon jungle, in search of a fabled civilization. He never returned. Over the years countless perished trying to find evidence of his party and the place he called “The Lost City of Z.”
In this masterpiece of narrative non-fiction, journalist David Grann interweaves the spellbinding stories of Fawcett’s quest for “Z” and his own journey into the deadly jungle, as he unravels the greatest exploration mystery of the twentieth century.
“The story of Z goes to the heart of the central questions of our age. In the battle between man and a hostile environment, who wins? A fascinating and brilliant book.” —Malcolm Gladwell

That’s the ongoing challenge facing the Waikato Catchment Ecological Enhancement Trust – the WCEET, and why they have partnered in a new public donation initiative with Momentum Waikato.
“Without any promotion, our funding rounds are always over-subscribed,” says WCEET Chair Gwyn Verkerk.
“So we’ve set up the WCEET Fund with Momentum Waikato, as both a new investment income stream in its own right, and to provide an easy way for the public to donate towards the expansion and long-term sustainability of this crucial local conservation funding.”

Borer damage has been found in the heritage-listed building at Claudelands and it's likely to be closed for at least a year.
It was originally built in Cambridge in 1878 and a council leader said it's understood borer is not unusual in buildings from that era.

In this article we will outline the features of hard window treatments and highlight key considerations when dressing your windows.
PLEATED BLINDS:
• Available as a single pleat or in a honeycomb design.
• Stack into a minimal space and come in a wide range of colours as a block-out of semitransparency.
• The honeycomb style is the best type of blind for heat retention because they have an air pocket to trap heat and are therefore energy efficient.
ROLLER BLINDS:
• A fabric blind that comes in a wide range of textures, colours, and opacity.
• Can be controlled by spring operation, a chain, or motorisation.
• Great in contemporary situations where large window have little or no stacking ability and clean, modern lines are required.
