Hi to all you wonderful Neighbourly folk

My son, Nate, and his wife, Alyssa, are working hard to raise $25000 to help start the first every cat cafe in South Island right here in Christchurch!

They only have 1 week to go to raise the last $8000 and so I'm spreading the word about their crowd-funding project where people can pledge from just $5.00. Every pledge has a corresponding reward. Pledges will only become donations when the $25000 goal is reached.
Every pledge will be greatly appreciated and help to make a wonderful new place for people to meet, have a cuppa and something delicious to eat and interact with Cat Rescue cats and kittens - you could also give a special, forever home to one of the cats or kittens that will be available for adoption.

Check out the Catnap Cafe crowdfunding project and facebook page in the links below. 

Many thanks
Victoria

Hi there neighbours!

My partner has been quoted A THOUSAND DOLLARS! To have a white jacket made to alternate with the black one as part of his dinner suit!!!!

I feel sure there is a talented gentleman' outfitter out there (or even a retired one) who could make this jacket at a more manageable cost!

Please post your contact details in reply to this post and we will be in touch!!! We are not trying to 'go cheap' and will happily pay a reasonable amount to a talented tailor! Many thanks.... Cherry Daly
