Hi Jenny, Please could you send me your address again? I want to send you a cheque, as I sold one of my twin mini-bears to a friend who saw it and wanted to buy one. I told her there were none left, and she was really disappointed, as she'd been searching for a present for a new-born baby girl, and she thought the mini pink bear would be ideal. I said she could have one and she insisted on paying for it, so as I won't get the benefit of the bear, I'll hand over the money. CB >|< X

Hi all, I have recieved Gaynor Bear from Linda today, with Jean Edwards, the Deputy Lord Mayor of Stoke-on-Trent in attendance. Gaynor Bear then visited the Wedgwood Visitor Centre in Barlaston where she was made extremely welcome, not least by her relation and friend Wedgwood Bear. Wedgwood Bear taught Gaynor Bear to throw a pot in the traditional way, and she did a marvellous job, considering it was her first time. She also met and cuddled the great Josiah Wedgwood himself. Photos are available on the website. After a relaxing evening with an Indian takeaway and a few bottles of good red wine, Gaynor Bear will tomorrow be attending a Stagecoach class, where she will receive instruction in musical theatre, including acting, singing and dance. I am sure she will be an outstanding pupil! Liz xxx

Sorry folks,have had a little bit of a break from PC. Have had a bit of a cold and was feeling a bit run down and at a low ebb. Got up early this morning and caught up with the housework, ( Had to really, cause had someone coming to see about putting in a new Condenser Boiler in.) Wow what a nice man he was too. Lol. Did really well this afternoon and stood for four hours and did all my ironing. Now looking forward to a nice quite night on the PC. Will catch up with you all throughout the evening. Jenny xx

I am sorry for delay in answering your posts. Thought I was feeling a lot better, but now have a bit of a chest infection. Not feeling too good at all, at times. My own fault I know, I must stop smoking. Dawn, you have done really well, organising your group 4. All is falling into place. Linda, please do not get too upset about the photographers not turning up. You have done so well. C B. I am sure you have got my message. Liz, sounds like you are having fun with GB. Can you let me know where you are, so I can update my main title thread. Keep us posted. Claire. Hope Hubby has a great time, with GB on the Fun Run. Ask him to get us some photo's of himself with GB. We now have some more photo's of GB, on the GB Relay site. The one of her turning her hand to a Wedgewood pot is lovely. The one with Josiah Wedgewood is fantastic. Thank you all for all your support. Jenny xx

Caz, (Mi Duck) Many thanks for your letter received this morning. Your Mini GB will be posted on Monday. Also thanks for the two newspaper cuttings of GB with you all. I would like to put them on the GB Relay site, but one has an address on. I need your permission first, before putting it on. Not too sure on how to omit the address. Please let me know what you think. Jenny xx

How are you doing, have you stopped yet? PS. I always make sure my glasses are dry. Dont you? Lol. Chris says 'Hello' Jenny x

Calling the last few members of Group 4. Can someone towards the end of the group, fill in the form provided, stating all GB's belongings in her bag. I really need to know if it is time for me to buy a Pink Suitcase, that will hold her belongings. What I really mean is, is it time for me to send money down for someone to buy it for me? Thanks Jenny. x
