SIR, Christmas is coming and Kendal Lions Club would like to get a new fur coat for our Rudolph, which stands on the float we use to take Father Christmas around Kendal.

Through your pages we thought we might be able to contact a willing seamstress who would know how to go about the job of giving Rudolph a bit of a sprucing up.

This will be our 22nd year of collecting money for good causes within Kendal.

We think that the present Rudolph is about 15-years-old.

The schools are unable to help us in doing this sort of thing, as it does not come within their present day curriculum activity.

If anyone is interested in taking up the challenge, Lions would meet any reasonable cost incurred.

The Lions Club can be contacted through its telephone number, PO box or even e-mail address, and we could arrange to meet with tape measure in hand and a short drive to Lapland to meet our thinning Rudolph.
