A huge success & target reached

It's Sunday the 11th March & i have just finished working out just how much we made at the Auction on Friday night.
Including donations leading up to the event,from people who couldn't make it on the night,we made a staggering £3620.00!which takes our total over £10,000.
We had a hugely enjoyable evening during which we wined & dined well & listened to my father talk about life in the chocolate business.
We had 20 wonderful items to auction, including a watercolour by our local artist Kitty North, who has a gallery in London.
Silentnight Beds which is based 3 miles down the road donated a single divan bed worth £300.
Our local pub/hotel were also very generous by providing 3 items to auction. One of which was a w/e for 4 people in a self catering cottage on the outskirts of Grange over Sands. I bought this lot for myself & Terry as a 'treat'. I think after 8 months of fundraising, we deserve it!
I also took orders for Easter Eggs, as the ones i donated for the auction were very popular.
We raised £545 from playing a game called 'heads & tails', which the prizes were 2 large easter eggs & a large chocolate rabbit. Also from the sale of 3 more large rabbits & 3 flower arrangements from the table
We are going to take a break for a while to decide whether we have one more event in us!
