Congratulations to Sophie who won the best dressed bear competition with her "Princess" bear. I may be mistaken but I'm pretty sure she is our youngest ever prizewinner !! Here she is with her prizewinning bear and Bertie the Beaver who did the judging.

Thanks go to John and Andy for fantastic organisation as usual and to everyone for their generous donations to Age UK.

Sorry that my thanks is a little late to those who made the contributions to the 'AgeUk' charity, I think it was in the region of £80 perhaps Tim could clarify, the bulk being from 'Heather and Ray' who brought the 'Remote Control Cars, and accessories, and Ron & Joan who bought the small 'Harrods Teddybear'..


And on a very sad note as you know Andy and Heather were unable to attend because Heathers Dad was taken ill, I have since heard from Andy that Heathers dad passed away the following week.
