Unwanted wool
Do you have any wool that you no longer need? We are a group of elderly women who knit blanket squares, jerseys, scarves, hats for poor people in Moldova and Romania and we are always looking for wool to keep us going. We knit and crochet for the group, 'Mission without Borders' , which is made up of people who want to help those less fortunate than we are in NZ. They arrange to ship the work when it is completed. It is a non-denominational organisation who want to share some of the abundance we have in NZ with people who are less fortunate than we are.
Please call me if you can help and I will arrange for pick-up. My number is 021-057-0371. Kind regards and 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.
