Hi to everyone.

Lonsdale Street - Street Sale

So come on down for a look. You may find something you need or want!

It is being held from 9 am until 2 pm and the sun WILL be shining! There may even be a sausage sizzle!

If there are any further Lonsdale residents who want to join in please feel free. The more the merrier and a good time to have a bit of a cleanup before the crazy holiday season! And a few extra dollars in the pocket too.

Look forward to a fun filled day.
