I'd like some posters too please. Good idea Clare, there is a local Newsletter for the local area where I live so i'll have to get us in that too. Unfortunately i'll have to wait for the next one to come out to find out who to contact as I don't tend to keep them! Jack x

Hi folks. Have to apologise with regard ot the posters, I've been off sick all week and frankly haven't really put too much thought into it. I'll get 'something' done over the weekend though if possible, I'll at least have a stab at it. I'm still stuck on £70 donations on my page, although I've had 4 promises, just waiting for them to hit the site ! Paul (sorry, that should be pinksaharasmiff lol)

One happy trekker here today, i now have my boots, and £130 in donations with several promises of more to follow. I went to a family party last night and got names and address of people i can send sponsorship forms to...i am SO shameless :-)) Diana do i need to send the sponsorship forms to you when i have collected the money or do i hang on to them and just send you a cheque?? Do you want them sent in certain amounts i.e every time we have £100, or £200 or monthly?? Paul, could i have a poster or two when you are back to full strength please? I have noticed a few of the pinksahara names creeping onto the threads, are we all going that way? if so i will go and change mine. Have a nice weekend everyone. Yvette

Hi Pink peeps... would i be rude to suggest another way of collecting money...only the girl at work is doing a Trek for Cancer Research in Peru next week, and she brought in a big box of Smarties, and asked people to take a tube home and fill it up with 20p ......it takes time but when they are full you get £30 in each.....Just an idea for you all.. Good luck..im really proud of you all. Love Anita xxxxx

Yvette Report 1 May 2005 12:11

Anita Thats a good idea, not sure if it would work with some of the people i know....they would just eat all the smarties, lol. However i am going to try it with a few people first and see how it goes. Any more good ideas folks?? Yvette
