Thanks again so much to everyone who donated to our family’s head-shaving in aid of children’s cancer charity St. Baldrick’s. As you can see, the deed was done on Friday night – and we raised (at last count) an astonishing $33,000. I even got $372 for the beard on the night!

If you still want to contribute, you can do so on our St. Baldrick’s page.

Auditor Larry Dennis has hit back in today’s Gazette at accusations from Government over his recent Special Report. According to the Gazette:

Police/Court builders Landmark Lisgar donated $1,000 to the Progressive Labour Party and then claimed the money back from Government, says Auditor General Larry Dennis. The cheque was made out as a “charitable donation” and Mr. Dennis said it was included in a bill to be reimbursed along with other costs. His audit revealed other strange payments including $14,500 for a car for building managers.
