We will be receiving a bulk load of tomatoes next week and a large group of volunteers will be turning this into passata sauce as a base for future cooking sessions.
Recently local charity shops kindly donated preserving jars for this project but we now required screw lids and seals.
If you have any to spare and are happy to donate these, they will be gratefully received. Ring Bev 063771022/0272703366 for further information or pickup.
As part of a new initiative to allow greater interactivity Cobblestones is looking for some surplus SmartTV's capable of HDMI and USB input.

The Masterton District Council is proposing to remove a bulldozer and tractor which have been features of the Kids Own Playground since 1961.
A report to councillors said both pieces of equipment are in poor condition and are potentially dangerous to children.
“Whilst there are minimal reports of injury or incidents over the past five years, the equipment no longer meets today's playground safety standards,” the report said.

New Zealand Police's Financial Intelligence Unit estimates New Zealanders lose $20-30 million annually to scams.
HOW TO AVOID A SCAM:
+ A genuine bank or organisation will never contact you to ask for your PIN, password or to move money to another account.
+ Never click on a link in an unexpected email or text – you could be giving access to your personal and financial details.
+ Always question uninvited approaches in case it is a scam. Instead, contact the company directly using a known email or phone number.
+ Don’t assume an email or phone call is authentic – just because someone knows your basic details (name and address, or mother’s maiden name) it doesn’t mean they are genuine.
+ Don’t be rushed into making a decision or financial transaction on the spot – a genuine bank or trusted organisation would never do this.
+ Listen to your instincts – if something feels wrong then it generally is.
If you believe you are the victim of a scam you can contact Police and report the matter via 105.
