A Blooming Great Tea Party!

Hello Folks....well I have to say a BIG thank you to everyone....you clearly all did a sunshine dance for me! Our Blooming Tea party for Marie Curie was a huge success yesterday...complete with yummy cakes, lots of tea, pretty dresses and lots of sunshine! So many people joined us on the day and lots of people supported us via other things....the lovely Lucy Hayward vintage hair stylist worked her magic on us, giving us all fab hair styles (Lucy also added to our donation pot). The lovely Kerry at Wrapped 4 You designed really yummy chocolates for us for our goodie bags....and donated some vouchers for the raffle! A brilliant florist in New Malden called Imagine gave us a beautiful plant for the raffle and Lake-Thomas Cakes made us fab 8 inch cake also for the raffle.

Everyone seemed to have a fab time and more importantly we raised nearly £160 for Marie Curie!

Yummy Cakes!

A BIG thank you to everyone involved this year....and I'm looking forward to next year's party!!

Now....I've actually got a card for you today too.....

Sorry for the awful photo!!

Hello Folks!

No card from me this morning....instead a quick message to let you know that I am running a Race for Life this afternoon in Guildford.

As many as you know I lost my Dad to cancer last year and since then I do my best to raise awareness of charities associated with cancer and raise money.

If you fancy sponsoring me today that would be brilliant - my Just Giving page is here.

Also keep your eyes peeled for my vintage tea party in aid of Marie Curie that is taking place in July. We're having lots of tea and cakes, a fab raffle and we've got a vintage hairstylist popping by to give people that vintage look! How exciting!

Thanks for popping by today,
