I have just realised to my horror that although I said I would go on the site and donate, I have forgotten!!! Promise to do it over the weekend. :( Joy

Chaps, you have all been amasing in the support you have shown for this cause and I for one am proud of you all!! A few poeple have asked for an address to send cheques so here is one... 85 Newtown Road, Newbury, Berks RG14 7DD - it's not my home but all mail is forwarded from there to me. Please make all cheques payable to CANCER RESEARCH UK and if you are a UK tax payer then please can you write your name and address on the back of the cheque so that a further 38p in every £1 can be claimed back from the government. Thanks again Pink xx

Nudge, needs to be kept up the board. Christine

Thanks GR! xxxx

Thanks genes, really appreciate your support..... we can keep this thread!!

Nudge for new peeps xx

If anyone wants to donate but not online then please email me and I will send you my address... cheques are all made payable to CANCER RESEARCH UK - so please don't let anyone think I get anything other than satisfaction out of this!!

Wow Gaynor that is FABULOUS! Bev I will email you... thank you!!

Nudge!

Diana would love to donate but havent got a card. Do you have somewhere that I can send a cheque/postal order to? Think it is fabulous what you are doing

Me is begging again!! Sorry but there are lots of new people here now and every donation is a gift i can't refuse!!

For all the newbies that may want to help!! :O)

I did a 6 mile training session on Sunday and my butt is killing me.... I didn't know i had muscles there at all!! :O) And it ended up at my house not the local hostelery!! How good was I? Did go in there later tho... got the official sponsorship forms in now so they are being posted up in strategic places.... have obtained pledges from companies for items to auction, have organised the wear it PINK day at work and setting up the Xmas card alternative too. So I have no doubt at all that we will reach and exceed the £5k we are aiming for!!

We have achieved 25% of the £5k that gaynor wants and after only 10 days or so.... you should all be very proud of yourselves... I can see £10k coming!! :O)

Just a bit of rain..... it's been chucking it down all weekend.... so bad that i haven't left the flat since Friday afternoon until this morning when I had to come to work.... haven't spoken to a single person all weekend apart from text and email.... how sad is that?

Bumpety bump..... thanks to those of you that have emailed me.... I have replied to you all!! The training didn't go well this weekend due to all the rain.... but I will do more this week to make up for it!! :O)

The 1st £1000 has been achieved..... thanks everyone for getting us 1/5th of the way to our target in the first week!! I am so proud of everyone and very proud to be doing this for great people and a great charity!! ;O)

See she is loving the title of MAD WOMAN!! Anyway, quick update..... We are just over £70 under our first £1000..... which is tremendous at this stage of the fund-raising..... I have very sore legs.... completed my 1st ever 4 mile walk on Tuesday, traipsing the streets of Newbury with my pal Dave..... must say he was a bit of a bully.... joking Dave honest, just would've stopped at the first pub myself not the last of 20 that we walked past!! ;O) This weekend, I am going to walk for 2 hours instead of the 1 hour and 10 minutes that the 4 miles took me to walk... so it will be a bit further!! :O) Thanks again for all the support both financially and emotionally that you have given.... me has had a bad week one way or another and you lot have cheered me no end!! thanks again!! D

This is fantastic...... I am sure with all the help you guys are giving the we will get the £5k Gaynor wants.... she's still a Mad Woman tho.... ;O)

always reminds me of you the gutsy lady who has made it on her own and getting on with her life.good on you di .love and hugsxxxxxxxxxx(:
