Well we are basking in a heatwave at the moment - we are not as bad as some of our colleagues south of the border but it is bad enough for me to have to hide from it :0( Shouldn't moan the kids are all outside in Jenna's huge paddling pool (all the kids in the street are there I think from the sound of all the hilarity!) the school holidays have just started so hopefully we will get nice weather for a week or so for them to have fun in the sun.
Spending today boxing up another load of wonderful donations to send out - having been doing it monthly for the last wee while we are going to have to cut down to doing it weekly as our numbers keep growing - can't believe how succesful it has all become - thanks to all of you wonderful members with your big hearts xxx We have a never ending stream of parcels and boxes coming in here all the time keeping Kelly and I ever so busy sorting, photographing, listing and then packing up for the outward journeys.
Todays boxes will be for - A breast feeding support group in Milton Keynes, Avril at Tommee Tippee, Nia at Friends of the Animals rtc in Wales, Algerian Action, Scotia Aid, Prem and burial items for Abi our group leader in Portsmouth, Wool for a new group of knitters, several maternity wards and Sands.
We will also be packing up blankets and pet beds to take to Fife Cat Shelter and Perthshire Abandoned Dogs Society. Such a hive of industry here :0)
Miss Jenna had her birthday on Saturday and got a lovely wee kitten - called Toffee - ever so cute ;0)
Right - had a breather so back to packing boxes - better be careful though - I keep bursting open my shoulder and it meandsmore rows from the wound nurses when I go in to the hospital to get the dressings changed :0)
