Left over from Sunday and found in the depths of my garage are quite a few doggie bits - collars, harnesses, coats etc that might do well at this event.
If we could organise a transit systems to get them to the right place, they might fetch a few pennies. |

Is there anyone by chance coming into London (East London or Canary Wharf) from Farnham way before the 27th  _________________ SHARONR - ADMIN

Hope to see some RR friends.  _________________ SHARONR - ADMIN

A lovely day was had by all today!!!! The sun was shining all day. I did remember the suncream (thanks Karen! ) so i am burn-free! Today was Sharon, myself, my Mum and Lucie and we were joined by Andy and family We sold the dog biscuits and liver cake, did a tombola and did the ball in a bucket game. There were a lot of other charity stalls doing very similar things so we did face some stiff competition. I didn't enter Lucie into any classes but she was VERY busy harrassing Sharon (and anyone else nearby) to throw her ball!!
We met loads of lovely dogs and owners, including a fair few who remembered us from previous events (we are obviously getting the word out there!! ). I fell in love with the dog on the next stall (again!! Note to anyone out there, if you want to rehome a dog, just book the stall next to us at an event, i will fall in love with it and will take it home! )
Sharon and Mum had to put up with a very hormonal grumpy me this morning but kept their heads down until it passed and i became my lovely self again Sorry ladies!!!!
All in all a good day, i will let Miss Sharon give you the magic total!! xx
