On Friday, 25th August some caring neighbours of Tannie Piet's in McGregor took the opportunity of pampering her...
The donations received after an appeal by McGregor News enabled the SANTA ladies to thoroughly spring clean Tannie Piet's house, replace bedding and bathroom linens, give her small gifts of soaps and lotions and make her feel thoroughly loved.
We thank those of you who so generously provided items to enable this event to take place.
We had more than enough donations to keep for another occasion in the future.
We even had donations from McGregor property owners who live in Holland!
Thank You all so much!
