Haiti heros





Last nights fundraiser was a huge success.
I'm not sure how huge because all the money isn't in
yet - that is to say, I have to hand mine over.
(I bought a nice young man for an afternoon.)

Should you wish to drop in a donation, Roy and Jo's is nearest for Tillingites - otherwise Martin and Jane or Leigh and Lorraine.

Here is Jo, doing the rabble-rousing and Leigh in the legendary lapin chaud shirt.

The organisers were truly organised - congratulations to them - the food was fantastic, and the level of management of the auction superb. I suspect at least one of the team has had prior experience of fundraising.

Lorraine was on great form - here she is showing an adorable picture of Joans that I missed and clever Kat got at a great price.

And top marks to Oscar - who darted about all night being
everybody's helper - Dermot and Kate have reason to be
proud of their charming sprog.

Update: dosh raised so far in excess of 1,400 euros - nearly enough to buy a container/class room equipped with everything to make sure kids stay in education during this time of enforced upheaval -
