The very sad loss of Claire (peecee) recently happened to reveal just how much her contributions on CBF touched people and were appreciated, especially her sense of humour. I had an idea to arrange something to be sent for the funeral but it is tomorrow.
Claire was a supporter of Animal Aid and I thought a fitting tribute would be something that benefits the good work done there. I spoke with Andy/Tinx and we (eventually) came up with a picnic style table with a message from us all - either as a plaque or carved into the wood. This would be both useful and be there hopefully for a very long time.
If members agree that is a good idea, and would like to make a contribution, we have come up with two ways:
1. Using the CBF/Paypal donate page (which was to sell T shirts) @
http://calis-beach.co.uk/cbf2010tshirts.htm - there is a donate button and an explanation on how it is done (and how people without a paypal account can donate)
and
2. Andy will be arranging a collection at the weekly Winehouse night in Uzumlu (and I think money raised that night from the general shenanigans that go on) - that is Tuesday next week (not tomorrow).
I hope we have come up with a fitting tribute to a lady who CBF will miss, and however small or large, your contribution will be very much appreciated.
As a footnote I must say, if you donate via paypal, please drop me a line if you would expressly prefer a mention of your donation, or indeed expressly prefer not to have any mention of it at all - I am the King of putting my foot in it.Thanks!
