Wanted ~ Mirrors to Borrow

Looking for full-length mirrors for our Fashion Show. Does anyone have a mirror we could borrow? Willing to pick-up and return. Reminder that this Sunday April 22 is the deadline for donating clothes. Speaking of clothing we have all sizes for all types of women as well as shoes, purses and jewellery. Not only have the ladies on Thetis kindly donated but we have had a huge number of women from off island donate as well. So join us for a evening of shopping, fashion show and 1 glass of wine (non-alcoholic will be available) and cheese all for only $10.00. Extra wine will be available for $5.00 glass. 

Thanks

Toxic Plant ~ Spurge Laurel

This is Yard and garden clean-up time and as you go about eliminating invasive species such as scotch broom and unwanted blackberries, be very careful when you pull or cut daphne/spurge laurel.  All plant parts are toxic and can cause blisters and rash if you don't use gloves.  But there is also evidence that the Smoke from burning this plant is also toxic, so be aware of where your smoke is going if you include this in your burn pile.  Use the Venting Index - burn only when the Index says YES (GOOD) so that the toxic gasses rise rather than spread.

For more information on Spurge Laurel (which will be flowering soon -yellow flowering shrub, sometimes mistaken for a rhododendron, black poisonous berries that birds are able to eat) go here: https://www.worksafebc.com/en/resources/health-safety/information-sheets/toxic-plant-warnings/severe-skin-irritation-from-spurge-laurel-daphne-laureola?lang=en&direct
