Hi guys,

Can't believe how time flys, 6 months since my last blog (scary).  Anyway just to keep you updated Aga is doing a bike ride from London to Paris for the charity "Christain Aid".  She goes next week on the 21st July for 3 days (we will miss you).  To help raise funds we are having a Charity fun day on 30th August from 3pm onwards (I think) but will confirm times nearer the day....we will have stalls, food and the usual banter.  

Anyway speak soon x

Hi guys,

What can I say I haven't wrote anything for about two months now time flys when your having fun.

Can anyone remember Aeysha!!!! Well she's back to help our lovely Carol on the weekends. She left in October 2007, which feels like 5 minutes ago and I think Aeysha feels the same, (it's like she never left).

Fundraising for Aga and I is going very well so far, we have £955 in the pot, only another £5045 to go!!!!

Anyway speak soon x

Hello everyone,

Mother's day is around the corner, hope you've got something nice.....I'll be there working my little socks off.  So see you then.

Also just to let you know Aga and I are trekking in Vietnam in Oct, to raise money for the moon bear sanctuaries.  We need a mininum of £6,000 between us, so we need all the help possible, any fund raising ideas or donations would be gratefully received. 

In the meantime Jane (Ann's Sister) is also doing a husky trek in Norway through to Sweden, next month.  So please support Jane with buying our lovely chocolate truffles at 50p each, the charity is Blue Cross, to help pets left by their loved ones.
