We also did well for donations (Those who did, PM me for how you'd like to be remembered on our website), we've raised enough for at least one can of every colour required for the livery, so thank you! Thanks also to the LPG for letting us piggyback on their day.

Some pics:

It all got a bit too exciting:

Thanks again everyone!



Awww my little man! SOOOOO cute and SO big!

Glad you all had such a brilliant day. Hope to catch up with you all soon xx

A question.

Please post here and I will ensure I don't use your's ;) Ta
