Alright, so afternoon guys - 4 Mar 2026 - (833 words) - Jaynes Baby Bank

Alright, so afternoon guys.
We've just had Trading Standards in now.
Haters have reported us.
I give them the names and they were like, mmm, that's them.
Reported the bin.
This famous bin down the bottom.
Now, you've got to have your photo taken with that famous bin.
Anyway, we passed.
We passed again.
There was, there was an advisory.
Oh, I tell you what the advisories are on.
Now, advisory on these items, of course, because they're knitted.
They're not just vintage now.
They have to have the fire labels on them.
And I think I put a post out because I don't know if anybody knows that, right?
I'm on socks and pants.
I got quite... and they're not bad actually, but what I might do is put them on a rail or something and do three for a pound tomorrow if it's nice.
Because I got so many.
I got two boxes full, which is, don't sound a lot, but it is.
What's that?
That's lovely.
It's a fancy dress, isn't it?
Another advisory that we had, them shoes we had in, they're lovely, beautiful ones, is knitwear.
Knitwear, that's a shop bought one.
Let me find one that isn't a shop bought one.
Knitwear, again, they're having no end of problems with knitwear.
They're going to be going around all the baby banks, everywhere else, all the charity shops for the sound of it.
So they now have to be close knit, which we always say.
So this is no good, no more.
We're patterns in because it's too dangerous.
What I might have to do is take ours off and get my knitters to unpick them all and redo them, or do a blanket.
Because that's... I'll be honest with you, what mothers need is blankets for toddler, junior school children, and comprehensive children.
They need blankets to keep the children warm.
They don't need cardigans, okay?
We don't need any baby cardigans, and especially no baby hats.
Last time I had about a hundred baby hats because the hospital brought them over because they didn't want to use them and didn't like to say no, and my knitters took them all apart and turned them into a blanket.
Your buttons now have to be BS standard, okay?
And you need to prove that.
So if you're knitting cardigans now, even if you're just selling them on Facebook for yourself, nothing to do with us, you've got to do this, okay?
All of these items here, you need to prove in a label that it's all British standards and I'm being bought off Tmoo or anything like that.
Including your buttons, you have to have a safety warning on them.
This is for the knitters.
So we can't take them no more unless you put all of this on, okay?
I think I'm going to take mine off and get them unpicked and they can make blankets, which is what's needed because I got three rails of cardigans now and nobody wants them.
So don't knit us any cardigans.
If you want to do any knitting for us, give me a shout.
I will have wool for you in the next couple of days and unpicking.
And I need blankets, which are tight knitted to keep families warm.
That's what I need, okay?
Like this is absolutely beautiful, but you need to put proof in there now that it's been handmade.
It needs to have proof that, and the date, that the buttons are all BS standard.
It's not for us to do, it's for the makers to do, otherwise we've got to refuse them.
And you need to also put in where you've sourced your wool from.
And it's now got to have a fire label, which is...
Yes, you need to have your fire warning label in there now.
So anything like this, no good to us now.
And anything that comes from the hospitals, we would be taken apart now, okay?
So any knitters out there for anybody, even if you've done like us, if you're not knitting for us, if you're doing it for your own self, you selling them, you cannot sell them without those things.
Knitted is a massive thing's come up this year.
It's only just been flagged this year by the sound of it.
What a beautiful day we've had today.
We've had lots of customers in, as far as card, if they come today to come and meet us.
This is the market now today.
I've had quite a bit out today.
Sometimes nothing goes from the front, but then what I defined is they'll come in because there's stuff out the front.
So we're authorized to have that out there.
So please don't go bothering the council about that.
Chief of the pavements has authorized us.
Teddy's are our top sellers.
Like I've got that one up for ten, so he'd be a fiver today.
But he's well.
