Can I be a pain in the posterior and ask for all contributions to be made by Wednesday.

Many thanks.   :)

So, to wrap this up for another year………..

1. A very big thank you to scunner for providing the platform that makes it possible.

2. And to these wonderful people.



3. And just a mention of stuartT who sent me a private message – it was most appreciated Stuart.

In November I set out with the hope of filling one calendar. But yet again I failed to reckon with the fantastic generosity of CBF members who, with a little cajoling (and I sincerely hope it was only that), not only went on to fill a second calendar but then contributed more than was asked for.

There was also a small residue from the Stuart MacDonald (aka Rod Stewart) Presentation monies.

All of which means that on your behalf I will be transferring £ 628.00 to the 3 C’s.

PS Hopefully see you all around March for the Grand National Sweepstake and in June for the FIFA World Cup in June.
