Guest Angela Gilchrist Posted April 30, 2010 Report Posted April 30, 2010 Goodness this is my third time typing this it keeps disappearing, the thread should have read: THANK YOU TO EVERYONE AT NEWMAINS FLYING CLUB and all who attended the sale on 10.04.10 raising an amazing £1239 for my Marie Curie Charity, I am trekking the Grand Canyon for 9 days and all money raised goes straight to the charity. As a keen pigeon fancier myself (many years ago!) I miss the doos and my husband has even commented that I could build a wee dookit at the bottom of the garden - which I have to say I've looked at the unobstructed views from my decking and garden and thought "this is ideal". However, i'd have to miss the hubby play Rugby on a Saturday so he may change his mind there!!! On a serious note, i'm completely overwhelmed by the contributions, support and sheer kindness of everyone helping with what we're trying to achieve. It's given me a new outlook on life and keen to actually raise as much as is humanely possible for this great cause. If anyone caught the write up in the BRITISH HOMING WORLD last week it was great for us to have the recognition and also in the local Wishaw Press. It often seems the pigeon world are not recognized for their huge contributions to charity and have to say that Marie Curie themselves were amazed at what was raised. So, from me huge thanks, sheer proudness of my dad (William Gilchrist) and to everyone at my local club (well not local anymore as I live in wales, but Cambusnethan will always be my home) for everything, it was very touching to know that something so dear came to the forefront and supported me (ooh the tears are off again!!!). Seriously, THANK YOU ALL!! I can now keep in touch with you all as i'm now a registered member - yippee!! If anyone wants to look at the web page and see all the individuals who've helped me or make any donations the address is below, just copy and paste in your browser. http://original.just...om/angelaworgan THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
