Yet another open garden post!

So we opened our garden up to the public today for a local charity. We made lots of cake and sold tea and cake to the visitors oh, and honey of course! In total, we made over £700... and after I'd deducted the honey money, I was left with a very nice sum of roughly £600! I was AMAZED!! I would like to say thank you to all the people who came and had a look at the garden, and a very special thank you to the people who bought some cake or tea or made a donation!

And I can also reveal I HAVE RAISED ALL MY MONEY FOR PROJECT TRUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I still need some more for my 6 weeks travelling and a llittle for visas and innoculations, but I've raised my £5000!

On another note, a close friend who is raising money to go to Rwanda is in a fair amound of difficulty trying to raise her final amount, she is having a dog race event in 10 days and needs a minimum of 4 more businesses to sponsor a race otherwise the whole night gets called off. It's in Nottingham, but companies from anywhere can sponsor a race, so if you have a business that could spare £100 for a fantastic cause, or know someone who could help her out, please get in touch and I'll put you in contact with her, Thanks!
