Thats great Marion, didnt realise you were so near to Gaynor. If you can pass GB to Gaynor, in the next couple of days, Gaynor will then have GB for the following week. Then I can pick up from her. I have had a message to say that Gaynor and John are ready and willing to carry on as June planned. ....Can you let me have details about the Bedtime Beanie's???? Will definatley buy some. All the photographs are wonderful. Thanks everyone. Diane, will let you have my address, and I shall have to have yours, so I can send Harry his Mini Gaynor Bear. There is definatley one for him.

Hi folks just popping on to update from yesterday , i also had email from gaynor to say she's back did not want to mention the relay 1st day but i am able to tell you gaynor is 5mins down the road to me. Now i will be away from the 26th of july so if Ade is not available to do his bit i can pass to gaynor or whoever . As to planns for the bear nothing in particular because i have not heard back from the press( dissapointed really ). But i would like to get the Special Numbers Tickets going for the Bedtime Buddies please ... COME ON PEEPS.. Love Gaynor and Marion.x.

Lovely to read about GB's latest escapades! Have fun everyone. Linda x

Just reading through, pleased GB is enjoying herself. Just to also say Jenny that I think Ade put a thread up last week, he has not been on the boards but is OK. Ann Glos

Morning Marion & GB, Hope your both managing to keep cool? Just been looking at your photos -lovely will show them to Harry when he wakes up:)) Love Diane x

Cheers Anne and Jilly. Anne I just worry about bothering Gaynor at the mo. Hope to get things sorted asap. so we can book B&B. it will be awkward for me if I have to pick up both GB and Beau and all belongings and do it all by three trains on my own. Jilly, just you get yourself fit and well, it was great seeing you all the other weekend. Edinburgh is not too far if we are delayed for any time. I am expecting my first Granddaughter to be born earlier rather than later. But also know that the other two Daughters and my four Grandsons will decend on me within a day when she is finally born. Bet you any money SHE arrives this coming weekend when Hubby is in Amsterdam for three days. Jenny xx

Once I get my results on Thursday Jenny I'll focus into the GB relay again and try and get a route sorted out for you!! Jilly x x

Once again my apologises for not being around yet again. Son's Partner, 36 weeks pregnant has been taken into hospital with pains in upper abdomen. She also has a high level of Protein in her 'water' and hospital is worried about Toxemia. They are monitoring her constantly. Marion, sorry I have not been in touch yet. Can you let me know what plans you have for Gaynor Bear and how long you need her for. I have not yet got in touch with Gaynor. I know she has been away for a few days, but not sure if she is back yet. Marion was to pass GB onto Ade, but June had not heard from him for ages so presumed he would not be available. We now have to get GB from Marion, nearer to Gaynor and John. Once I know what plans Marion and Gaynor have for GB I can then work on the best way forward. Even if it means me picking up from Marion, passing to Gaynor, having a few days in Blackpool if we can get B&B ???? As you all know, the plan was for me to pick up GB, Beau Bear and all belongings from June the last weekend in July. Hubby is available to bring me in the car, rather than train from 25th-30th July and we intended to stay at least one night in Blackpool. Jilly in Scotland is down in Berwick for a few days the next week and I can easily pass GB for her 'Scottish Tour' I have been in touch with Jules of the Desert and she says if it helps everyone she will not mind if she does not get GB. Hope all this makes sense to you all. Jenny xx

Hi Marion & Gloria, Lovely to see you both again. Harry did well -tears weren`t far away but he kept a ' stiff upper lip' bless him:)) Marion I hope you have as much fun with GB as we have had and am looking forward to seeing your photo`s and reading of her adventures. Jenny am waiting to see if the Firebrigade are donating as they said they would-hopefully will know sometime this week. Harry has asked me to ask you if you have any little GB`s as I missed getting one when you were selling them.Please let me know! We have thoroughly enjoyed being part of the relay and although we have waited a long time it has been worth the wait! Good Luck GB and God speed Lots of love Lee,Diane & Harry xxxx

Hi All, can I just add a few words to drum up some support at the changeovers. Last tuesday Julie and her daughter Jess, handed Gaynor to me, we were on our own. Same day, I handed Gaynor to Diane, once again we were on our own. This morning Diane, Lee and Harry handed Gaynor to Marion. Apart from myself there was no one else there. Surely there are some of you out there who could come to a changeover just to give support, it would make it more of an occasion. That's it --finished my little 'few words'. Gloria :-))))

Hello Marion, I am all packed and ready to go. Expect tears-Harry wants to kidnap me and has just asked his mum if I can live here!! See you at 10.30 Lots of Love GB xx

Good morning everyone, Looking forward to the handover at the LDS Church in Chorley,at 10.30am everyone welcome, Recharged thecamera batteries let's hope it works and that i don't forget it ,lol. Diane ,Lee and Harry hope you have had a great time with Gaynor. Will see you soon. Marion.x.

Hi Mommy Diane has now managed to put the photos on the relaysite. I have just been visited by Horwich Firebrigade-and had my photo taken in the fire engine . The children were very excited and got to sit in the fire engine with me. Lots of love GB xx
