That’s not fair, when a child’s dreams can be so simple. Aiden just dreams of joining the big kids at school, with the proper uniform. With living costs skyrocketing, hardworking parents are finding it more difficult to provide their children with essentials like bedding, school uniforms or shoes. These children are also likely to miss out on important opportunities such as camp or swimming lessons.

And even in small spaces, a simple bifold door can provide fresh air and access to a beautiful view with a simple push.
Historically, Bi-fold doors were already known by the Romans as excavations in Pompeii have revealed. Peter Connolly writes in his book ‘Pompeii’ that the Romans ‘disliked single-leaf doors and wherever possible, both inside and out, they used French or even Bi-fold doors’.
We offer a range of aluminium Bi-fold doors that work well in both modern and traditional properties.

Got charged $2 extra per small chicken at PaknSave Silverdale. I know it was human era that scanned ticketed price tag and not the marked down price which should have been placed over the ticketed price tag. It is only $4.00 but multiple that with the amount of chickens in the fridge. When they ask you whether you would like a receipt always politely say yes and check it. John

Bought in Zimbabwe, I used this as a wall hanging. I stapled a thin piece of wood onto the back and added a string to hang it in my study.
This can easily be removed if you would prefer to use it as a tray cloth.

This can easily be removed if you would prefer to use it as a tray cloth. It was sold as a dish cloth, but a friend of mine washed hers and some of the paint ran. So I decided to make it a wall hanging.

Bought in Thailand, this is an elephant themed utility hanger. I used it in my sewing room for my dressmaking tools. I should imagine it would be handy in a bathroom, or behind a door to store things you want handy.
