Wool for knitting - does anyone have some to spare please?

Mary Anne from Taradale

Following our hugely successful knitting sale recently we find there is a real demand for warm handknitted garments for babies and children.
To help us meet this demand we need more wool for our amazing knitters to create these garments.
If anyone is able to donate either some spare wool or a donation for us to purchase precious baby wool, Red Cross would gratefully receive your contribution. These can be left with at our shop at Red Cross, 35 Cadbury Rd, Onekawa , between 10 and 4 Mon to Fri.
If you would like us to collect from you, then please phone the shop during those hours 843 0013. We appreciate your support. Thank you!

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Incinerator

Paula from Onekawa

Hi does anyone have a garden incinerator they no longer need or would like to sell/give away? I need to burn some accounts/documents - or if anyone has any idea how to get rid of them apart from public recycling let me know - Thanks
