Poll: Should babies be allowed in cafes and restaurants?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

While Jill Murphy was sitting at a cafe down with her partner and two-year-old daughter, a woman at the next table sighed loudly and said in a dismayed tone: "People want to go out and enjoy their food, you know. They don't want to have to put up with children."

She wrote in her opinion piece that she felt guilty for ruining everyone's lunch. To read more about her experience, click here.

So we want to know your views on young children in cafes and restaurants. Take part in our poll below! If you've got a view on this topic, share it with us in Stuff Nation.

Original Art on Baseball Caps / Hats

Connie from Remuera

Hello everyone,

I am presenting a limited release of hand-painted artwork on Baseball Caps. There will only be 29 caps in this range. For now, please do have a look at the first seven Caps attached. I will post more in the future as I work on them.

Price per piece = $55.00.
Fabric look/feel is suede-like (not real suede). It is a really nice quality cap. You can zoom out each photo to view better.
Adjustable backstrap with metal clasp.
NOTE: Some Caps have more than one photo to give you views from different sides (I can send you more photos if required).

Mother's Day is just two weeks away. This would make a really memorable yet practical gift for that special person. OR...get it for yourself! Just know that when you are wearing it to brunch, on your walks or at tennis/golf, YOU are the only person in the world with this original piece of wearable art ☺️.

Pickup in Remuera or happy to courier:
P&p $16.00 (with signature)
Rural addresses +$5.50.
If you want it sent overseas, I am happy to quote.

For the remaining Caps that I will be painting, if you have any suggestions that you would like to see, or if you would like to order a cap with a particular bird/flower et , I am happy to consider. No portraits please! That would be too hard on fabric 😅.

Have a lovely weekend,
Connie.
PS. I apologise for the low photo resolution as I had to resize them down to be able to post.
