Now another bucket has been accounted for, is there one more member who would like to participate for the last bucket.


Also for people attending, all been finalised thanks to the very hard work of ANT5 (Your a star bud) all info will be passed onto me tomorrow as regards location where we will be collecting and cars parked.
Come along for a few hours of your time for a good cause

Ben,
       We have spent alot of time around each other i and dave, we have learnt alot from each other over the years and become very close friends, My wife lost her mother to cancer over a year ago, now it affected us again, i was shocked and hurt that i would possibly lose a very special friend to this disease and can not think how i would get on with things if he was not here, but we do carry on, and whilst he is here i want him to enjoy everyday.
Even thou i can not be with him everyday at the moment this is the next best thing i feel that will make his and other people with cancer time they have left a comfortable one is raising money for the people that work there backsides off to look after people close to you.
The most annoying hurtful thing is it happens to the best kind loving people
 
A reply like yours is more than enough support, but it goes to the people that help and look after the ill people, not to me.
I will pass on all good will comments to dave and his family, like i say dave is coming hopefully in my car and he can chat to the members himself and say hello.
I seriously thank you the members, mods, chairman of forum for allowing me to do this event, and in helping me get it started   

Pete :wink:
