Little Red Devil. and hubby Amazing donations.
« on: April 23, 2013, 16:41:20 PM »
I have known Anne and her hubby for a few years now and she and her husband hav ealways been very generous with their donations of items for The 3CS charity. However they surpassed themselves today... Bee and I went round for coffee and to collect yet another lot of donations to find their bedroom stacked with bags. boxes suitcases and gift boxes... They have recently sold their apartment and instead of taking everything home have given us the whole lot....Lots of items brand new... Some will go into the Promises Auction. Some will be sold on the internet and loads more will be on sale in the shop... Quality items galore.Even their carrier bags are posh lol.  ... On behalf of The 3 Cs I would like to say a HUGE thank you to them both for their support....and hope that we will see them again in Fethiye... A really lovely lovely kind couple.... Thank you.....It is really appreciated...I have put this on the main page because I feel their kindness needs to be read by everyone...It was like Xmas for Bee and I sorting it all this afternoon... lots of ooohs and wows....and she is Scottish John!!!

Only met this couple today, what a wonderful pair and made me feel so welcome, coffee and shortbread.  The donations are just fab and will generate lots of lira for the charity.

Us Scots have ALWAYS been very generous, despite what others may say about us.  I have never met Anne or her husband but this is a very generous action.  It must be a huge wrench leaving such a beautiful place, as indeed it was for me but I wish them both well and 'haste ye back'.  Best wishes to you both for the future.

Thankyou all so much. I think the charity does a wonderful job and they all work so hard, giving up a lot of their free time.

Wonderful and touching story.  I wish them well in their next venture and as someone who has lived in Scotland a very long time I can also say the stories about Scots being mean are tosh.. They are lovely generous people.

Chrissie & I have spent our first Wednesday opening sorting through & pricing many of these donations & have to say they are good quality, some of which were taken out of my hands & sold before I'd had chance to hang on the rails, says it all really

A huge thank you from all at 3Cs
