Can you Help?
We are a group of ladies who make blankets, jumpers, hats, scarves and gloves for needy people in Moldova, Romania and the Ukraine. The need is very urgent as conditions there are extreme. We knit, crochet and sew all year round so are in constant need of fresh supplies. If you can help with wool (or acrylic) or material scraps suitable for quilting, we would love to have them. Odd balls and part balls of wool or acrylic are fine – we an use them for stripes etc. Please ring me on 021-057-0371 and I will arrange to pick up anything you can donate to our cause. Many thanks. Pat G.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
