Paul, It doesnt matter either way. You are very kind. If you want to save postage if you can get it to Margarita before the 17th June (we have a committee meeting that day) I will see her at the meeting and she can bring the "goodies" for me. i am going to the garden party and of course will be at the funday in August.
Thanks once again
Lynn

It is easy enough to offer a prize via a web site. I once put a £20 virtual voucher in a raffle. The guy that won it was really nice and because he wasn't on line I said I would give him the cash. He promptly handed me back a tenner for Club Rescue and took the other for himself. He was a Pointer man himeslf. How nice was that.

No Rute. not just doggy. I am hoping we will have bottles of wine, chocolates, nice smellys (that for anyone who doesnt understand english very well is perfume, bubble bath, body cream etc.) infact anything.... address book, writing sets, pens, etc. or dog food, dog biscuits, blankets etc.... Anything at all that you think someone else might like...
Thanks
Lynn

I went along to offer my support and it was a good day.
Sat Nav took us to a Garden Centre.....lol..... we were driving around for over half and hour before we finally dropped upon the venue and my what a venue. From the front it looked like a reasonable size bungalow but go around the side and it was WOW.
I dont know how many people were there but it seemed busy, we had a go at the scurry. Jodie was quick to go get the dummy but wouldnt give it up, ran around the wood and had a great game with people trying to catch her....in her 2 minutes she only brought (or should I say I only managed to get off her) 2, Morgan did better bringing back 5. We watched the clay shooting, had some cake, and some more cake, and a little more cake. Didnt win anything on the raffle tho.
We got home and Morgan decided that he was cock of the north with the other 2 that we left behind and he and my other boy (Luke) ended up fighting. Luke has now been stitched back together, Dave (my other half) was bitten and the dinner got burnt.
So a wounded hubby, £200 vet bill lighter and and hungry we had a good day!
