Unwanted wool/acrylic
A big THANK YOU to the three people who gave wool for our group of elderly ladies who knit blankets, hats, jerseys etc. for people in Romania and Moldova (through Mission Without Borders - a non-denominational charity). If anyone else has wool or acrylic/wool they no longer need, we would receive it gratefully. Small balls and odd colours no prohblem as we use them for stripes. Please email me on patgee123@hotmail.com if yoou can help, and I will arrange to collect it. Many thanks. Pat

Poll: Do you think this was the right decision?
Hamilton City Council is defending a $60,000 spend on a flood of water management PR featuring a TV personality as residents face huge rates rises.
At a time of council cash constraints, Te Radar - real name Andrew Lumsden - catches the eye on the council’s Facebook page, where he currently features in three “explainer” video clips about Hamilton’s water services.
Do you think this was the right decision? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
