Hi Jenny, have got a Turkish newspaper interested in 'Gaynor Bears' story, due to me rabbiting on about it at school. (One of the mini-bears will auctioned off to the highest bidder and the cash passed to you - told all the teachers they can only pay in Euros!) They (the newspaper) have asked for photos and a write up but I need permission from you first. Magi

Gaynor Bear is now in Wakefield with Gem. Jan and I decided I would go to York to pick Gaynor Bear up as Jan had a slight problem and I couldn't have done it on Sunday as I will be in Whitby but I could have passed it to Gem any week night as I don't normally work after 5pm. Sue

Glad you are back home safely Sue, many thanks, bet you are shattered. Jan tells me you had a great laugh at York station. Cant wait to see the photos that were taken, they sound great. No one told us that you could do after 5pm. Jenny x

Hello All from Gaynor and Gem. Gaynor Bear is asleep, she has been out with the boys from the Football team at their promotion party, and got a tiny bit tipsy! She has had her photo taken with some of the football team, and is going to learn how to pull a pint tomorrow. Will update everyone on her stay in Wakefield. Gem:)))

Jenny could I have one please, if any going spare could I be cheeky and ask for 2 lol Lov JoJo xxx

Good morning all you lovely people. Thank you all for your interest in the Mini Gaynor Bears. I shall be ordering them today. Cannot wait for them to be delivered. Just imagine 150 nine inch Gaynor Bears being delivered to my house. Where on earth am I going to put them all? I am so excited. I shall be contacting all that have asked for one, shortly. Please remember all proceeds will be going to The Pink Fund. Jenny.x

I'd like a bear, too, please! Helen :)))

One for us please, Brian (& Diane) in Luton. Did you say a tenner each? When and where to send the cheque? Brian, ;~X )

I have finally managed to get into Gaynor Bear Relay Web Site. Please let me in. Thanks Regards Jill

Does this need a nudge?

Well it looks as if things are really taking off here in Wakefield! I've had an email back from the local radio station Ridings FM, they want to Interview Clare and I about the Sahara trek and the Gaynor bear relay. This week Ridings FM next week Radio 1 lol Jack x

Sorry I forgot to ask - Jenny, please could I have another Gaynor Bear (3 in total) we are going to giveone to the radio station to offer as a prize. Thanks Jack x

Hi Jenny I am in contact with Margaret re the handover to Notts. A date is not fixed yet due to TV appearances etc. We will let you know as soon as. I am taking GB to Rufford Park to see the bluebells and Robin Hoods tree at Edwinstowe all being well. Laura is aware.

Just to let you all know. I still depend on this thread, to know what is going on in the GB Relay. Please use this thread to tell me what you are all up to and if you have any problems within your Group. All of the Relay groups really do need to keep in touch with me. Even though you do not have dates as to when you will be likely to have GB enter you group, it would be a great help to me if you could let me know what might be planned for the group and give me a very rough idea as to how long GB will be in your Group. Thanks Jenny x

The mini Gaynor Bears have arrived. They are absolutley gorgeous. I am so pleased with them. Photo's of all 150 of them can be found on the relay site. The address to the site is in the main title posting. Jenny. x

Hi Jenny Please may I order a mini Gaynor Bear also? Thanks and regards Helen

Good morning everyone. As far as I know Gaynor Bear is now with Keith Red Devil. The handover was to take place outside the TV studios in Leeds at 6pm last night. I could not get in touch with Sue Smith during the day yesturday, so arranged for Keith to meet Claire and Jacks. I do not Know if the Television people were involved or not. I managed to get in touch with Sue Smith and Margaret in Yorks last night. Sue will receive GB from Keith on Sunday. Sue will then take her to Margaret on Wednesday. Where she will meet the Mayor of Doncaster. Could Margaret and Geoff (Robin Hood) Group 3. please arrange the next handover. Thank you all. Jenny. x PS. The first lot of Mini Gaynor Bears will be put in the post today.

for some reason i can't get into the other site - asking about passports and things and secure connections! have the GR Relay on my favourites so dont know why its all changed. Not too concerned just dont know quite what to do. Im Not ignoring anyone! Jess x

Just to let everyone know, Sue and Jenny will be comming with me on wednsday 18th may for the offical hand over to me, at the Mansion House in Doncaster. Gaynor Bear will be meeting the civic head of the council, complete with chains of office. Will now get onto the local paper for them to come along as well if possible. Maggie
