surprisingly successful

Well, I take it all back. Although not many people actually turned up to this coffee morning, those that did were more than generous and we managed to scrounge about £90 from the good people of my village. Ta muchly. Also, one of my mum's friends, who happens to be head of the local WI was very kind and decided to let me tag on to a jumble sale they were holding for a local children's charity See-Saw, and gave me all the proceeds from the cream tea sales, which came to about £100 - fantastic! So things are all good, and I'm nearly halfway to the target!

On another note, I appear to have lost my comedy streak and can no longer write in an amusing and witty yet informative and innoffensive fashion. Sorry.
