Emergency Jobs
This week was extremely busy especially with Patrick away in Westport working for the end of the week. He arrived home this afternoon and promptly received a phone call from a small business with no lights, and needing to open for evening service.
Our policy is no household or business should ever go without power, lighting or hot water 24/7 so after dropping his bags, and giving everyone including the dogs a quick kiss he was out the door for a few more hours.
Luckily one small takeaway shop was able to open for business!
Remember if its urgent we can help 24/7.

Baby knitting
At night while watching TV I knit baby cardys, bootees, beanies and have a couple of bags that I would like to donate to a worthy cause. It is all wool and would range from newborn to about 6mths old.
Would anyone have any suggestions for a place that would appreciate it.
