Shout out to all you knitters - we need your help to create a poppy display 🙏

We need red poppies with a black centre, either knitted or crocheted to create a stunning poppy display in conjunction with Carlisle Matters to commemorate Armistice Day and November 11th Remembrance Sunday.

Size doesn’t matter at all and the centre can be wool or a black button but as long as it’s tied on and long ends are left at the back so we can attach them to netting.

Along with The Lanes, the 'yarnbombing' display is also going on netting at the Tourist info centre steps and the bollards of Castle Street.

Please help if you can in making a poppy, or share to those who may be able to, so we can united the community in a stunning tribute and thank you to those that fought for our freedom. Thank you 👏

Please hand in the finished poppies, leaving your details, to the the Management Suite, that is on Level One of the car park, with the office being near to the bollards.

Thank you - we can only do this with your help 🙏

I love taking the Monkey Tales gang out on the road to various events. I'm not much of a sales person but I do enjoy all the interaction with everyone and Dalston Show yesterday was no exception. There's always someone different to talk to. Had a lovely chat with the guys from Andys man Club Carlisle they're there for all you guys who just need someone to listen.
Why this picture you ask. Well a Super Hero's fan recognised it as Batman. Thank you Dalston Show. Get August 9th 2025 in your diary now.

What a tremendous effort from the village of Dalston for putting on such a wonderful Dalston Show . What a super day it's been so a big thank you to you all. Thanks also to everyone who stopped for a chat and especially to those who have rehomed a monkey. I'm just about ready for bed now.

We survived the night so we're all ready for our day at Dalston Show. The sun is also here.

It looks like only little people will get into our 'little top' which because of the high winds when we were trying to put it up ready for the Dalston Village Festival is very low. But it will be raised tomorrow when the wind dies down and everyone is welcome to pop in and say hi.
