Boy oh boy, another fun day and the Barleylands gate people kindly let our cars (Tina's & mine) in for free which was much appreciated  Smile Ollie&Bex turned up just after we pitched our cars, but fortunately as Tina parks like a girl ( Rolling Eyes ) we were able move her car up and add Ollie & Bex on the end!  They did their bootsale and donated some of their proceeds and the kids kept us well amused throughout the day  Very Happy

Our stall today was manned by TinaD, her mum Lilian, my mum Rose and a special appearance by my dad Brian!  Discovered dad is capable of flogging bird seed up there with the best of them  Wink

We seemed to hand out more rehoming posters than usual today, so fingers crossed that it might result in a home for one of our dogs some time in the future.

We also had visits by Moss (RR JRT) and his owners Paul & Annie and Nicci & Karl with Bud (Staffie).  We always appreciate seeing our RR friends and their dogs and very much welcome their support.

I took along the RR dog t-shirt sample to show Tina and during the course of the day a lady with a very tiny cute pup came along and agreed to model so photos will follow. Plus shocking TinaD costume photos! Very Happy

The amount raised today was ... drum roll ... £185!

Our next fundraising event will be: 6 Sept 2009 - Dartford Companion Dog Show, Central Park, Dartford, Kent, DA1 1JP (entrance in Cranford Road)

i do NOT park like a girl!!!!! Blinking cheek!!! I deliberately left a big gap so that we would have a bigger pitch!!!!!! And a good job i did or Julie and co would have been far far away!!!!

It was indeed a good day, Sharon's dad is lovely (it is indeed a mystery how they ended up with her  Laughing ) and he agreed with my pricing strategy (i had to duck a few blows from Sharon and her Mum as they thought i was pricing too cheeply, as always!), so he is my new favourite person  Very Happy  It was also  fantastic seeing all of the RR friends again  Very Happy  Very Happy  Very Happy

I have managed to get sunburn AGAIN!!!!!! WHY do i not learn!!!???? We even had suncream in the car!!! I would have come back with less stuff than i went with but stopped off at Sharon's house where she loaded me up with more!!

Thank you everyone who came along!! i will put up photos soon, includuing my fab new stuff, adorable Max the puppy-modeling our RR t-shirt and other very interesting things!!!!  Very Happy

Well done to all of the gang on another successful fundraiser!

We noticed that your stall was the only one that was having a laugh and having any fun!

Moss loved all the fuss, cuddles and food!

See you again soon.
