SANTA'S
LITTLE HELPERS
Gump and Fonz
Yesterday saw us at
the Town Hall for the Association of
Jersey Charities Christmas Fayre. With
the amazing weather I think Santa
suffered a bit in his costume and was
pleased to have the assistance of Gump
and Fonz who once again proved a hit with
everyone there.
Just some of the
kids who I think reckoned Fonz and Gump
were reindeers
There was a steady
flow of people all day and we sold a lot
of magic Reindeer seed for the kids to
scatter for the 'big day' on the 25th
December. There was a great atmosphere
and the whole day seemed to fly by.
Peter with Gump and
Fonz
The lovely fact
about being in town is that lots of our
friends and supporters always turn up to
say hi and Peter and Sue called in much
to the delight of the guys as Peter had a
pocket full of sausages which made him
flavour of the day. Poor Sue had to do
her shopping alone as Peter got waylaid
by the boys (not that he objected)
As if sausages
weren't enough, they seemed to have
multiple cup cakes and Fonz pinched
Alison's carrot cake plus some mince
pies, mind you not the filling, as that
is not good for our canine pals. I did
imagine I might get many happy returns on
the carpet in the evening but all stayed
down phew!!!!
So is this the last
event of the year, well who knows, I seem
to have quite a few packets of Christmas
cards left so maybe, just maybe, we will
have to find another venue to sell some -
watch this space!
Unfortunately
Alison, back from Guernsey just the night
before, was full of cold and Hilary, well
she had a really bad shoulder. Wishing
them both speedy recoveries. Alison is
off to the U.K. on Monday to bring back a
Baby Nog look alike. Yep there is a 7
month whippet in need of a loving home so
take a look at her site for details.
Thanks to Lyn
Wilton of the Association of Jersey
Charities for inviting us to attend this
event.
