Jan has been creating cakes and experimenting with recipes ready for the great event! The weather was fabulous and Pauline and Jenny both helped out. We had many, many parents donate cakes from the school and several friends also made cakes. Thank you all. We have raised £170.56 an amazing amount thank you to everyone who supported us for such a worthwhile cause, especially the children from the school who helped selling and setting up.

Alex and I created the pads as per the diagrams from Peter Bland. Let's hope they all line up when the steels arrive!
Jan sitting in her new car, after a quick drive up to Leeds in a hire car, we were picked up by Connor the car salesman and taken to see the new car. It's a 4x4 Panda and hopefully just what Jan needs to have independence and get about picking up building materials!!
A big day today, Dave and his team arrived ready to work hard laying the floor beams and then filling it with blocks. Many thanks guys you worked hard and it looks great.
We had a great few days visited our favourite beach, tried out a new Cocktail bar and restaurant 'Raffles' - We'd all recommend that! and Bodmin garden centre where the farmers market was small but the plant selection amazing.
The bat licence finally came through and that means we can start work on the Sunday school roof. So down came the ceiling ready to remove old electrics and prepare for the steels.
Returned home after the 'Radio 2 Festival in a day', with Joe and Sarah. A fantastic day which we hope to repeat next year. The beam and block flooring was delivered ready for Dave and another group of muscle men to put on to the foundations.
The greenhouse is complete! Well sort of, still need to secure it down on the base and add a few bits to the outside corners.
So a sad day has arrived. We are taking the MX 5 to Plymouth where 'We buy any car' will give us less money than they suggest on their offer! The next car will be a 4x4 Panda.
